What is recorded here
Fulacht fia in Solsborough is a fulacht fia in Solsborough, County Tipperary, Ireland. The linear burnt stone spread measures about 10 metres north to south and 40 metres east to west. It was discovered while fieldwalking the ploughed route of the N52 Nenagh Bypass link road. The spread runs parallel to the present field boundary at the northeast and appears to lie within the line of an older, levelled, field boundary.
This linear burnt stone spread (dims. c.10m N-S; c.40m E-W), was discovered during fieldwalking of the ploughed route of the N52 Nenagh Bypass link road (Hughes and O'Brien 1999). The spread runs parallel with the present field boundary to the NE and also appears to lie within the line of an older, levelled, field boundary (ibid.). Associated finds include a sherd of medieval pottery and a fragment of modern pottery (ibid.).
