What is recorded here
On a small terrace, high up on the N-facing slopes of Tooreennamna Mountain. The remains of an oval hut site (4.1m N-S; 2.4m E-W) defined by a bank (Wth 0.6m; H 0.4m) of earth and stone. Several gaps occur along the bank. The level interior is raised (H 0.4m) at the N and cut (D 0.25m) into the upslope at the S to compensate for the hillslope. Another hut site (CO102-041002-) is 2m to the SW.
