Habitation site in Rathnaveoge Lower

Clusters of pits and postholes on a local level area on north-facing hillslope. Excellent views from the north-east to north-west. Evidence for several buildings are seen by dispersed postholes. Three postholes form a line, perhaps representing a single building. Other postholes (including a double) may represent the central supports for buildings that have left no other evidence. Some of the pits appear to be cooking pits or cremations as burnt bone is found in charcoal-rich fills. One pit contains fragments of prehistoric pottery. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien.
