What is recorded here
In low-lying flat marshland. When initially inspected in July 1992, this fulacht fia consisted of a grassed-over horseshoe-shaped mound of burnt stone (12m E-W; 10m N-S; H 1m) opening to the WSW. A drain was visible c. 15m to its S. Another fulacht fia (GA083-070----) lay to the SE. On re-inspection in June 2006, the entire field was found to have been cleared in advance of pre-development works and access road had been laid. The fulacht fiadh had been levelled.
