Fulacht fia in Greenan (slane Lower By.)

Located in a low-lying landscape between drumlins. Two fulachta fia were recorded side by side in an E-W line in 1968 (SMR file). This is the western one and is described as a grass-covered kidney-shaped mound (dims 10.5m ENE-WSW; 10m N-S; max. H 0.5m) with an indentation at S for a trough. Fulacht fia (ME005-013001-) is c. 1m to the E and the three fulachta fia (ME006-52----; ME006-052001-; ME006-052002-) are c. 100m to the NW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 22 October 2018 Amended: 6 October 2022
