What is recorded here
Fulacht fia in Killoran (Moyne parish) is a fulacht fia in Killoran (Moyne parish), County Tipperary, Ireland. The 1999 account records it on the west-facing slope of a low glacial ridge above partially reclaimed bog. Field walking in a ploughed field exposed a shallow spread of fire-cracked sandstone and charcoal measuring 6 metres north-south and 10.7 metres east-west. It was not excavated because the area was not going to be developed.
