What is recorded here
Two fulacht fia were noted in the SW area of Barna townland, yet no visible surface traces remain. They are ghosts of a place where heat and water met, now hidden beneath grass or forgotten soil. What is missing is not nothing. It is a life that stopped being seen, but did not stop existing.
Two fulacht fia were noted in the SW area of Barna townland (information from Mr T. Coffey). Following an extensive search no visible surface traces were noted. Their precise locations could not be determined.
