Fulacht fia in Glencolumbkille North

Fulacht fia

What is recorded here

At the SW edge of a pond on low-lying ground in pasture, surrounded by trees and rocky terrain. This fulacht fia survives as two banks of burnt stone – a larger grass-covered bank (7m NE-SW; 5m NW-SE; H 0.8m) at the SE and a rough, low, curving stone bank beside it to the NW, suggesting an original horseshoe-shaped bank enclosing an interior space (diam. c. 5m) and open to the NE.
