What is recorded here

Situated at the E end of a narrow terrace (Wth c. 80m) of rough grazing near the foot of a NW-facing slope overlooking the Caher River and Fanore dunes. The more northerly of a pair of parallel rectangular structures (see also CL001-016008-) situated 2m apart and aligned NW-SE. They are separated by a small spring well and water pool. This is the longer of the two (int. dims. 3.9m NW-SE; 2.6m NE-SW) and is constructed of a mixture of double-walling (Wth 0.8m; max. H 1m) without a core, large blocks and transversely laid thin flags on natural outcropping rock. Both buildings have entrances (Wth 0.85m) at E. Tim Robinson (pers. comm.) believed them to be part of a still-house for poitín making. Compiled by: Mary Tunney and Ros Ó Maoldúin Date of upload: 21 September 2020
