What is recorded here

Ballynaboley is a village in County Carlow. The hut site is a faint circular shadow within a larger enclosure, visible only from above on old aerial photographs. It may have been a small dwelling, a shelter or a marker, but no wall or hearth remains for a person to touch. The earth keeps the shape while human memory has gone quiet.

Faint traces of an incomplete circular structure can be seen within enclosure (CW012-075----) on aerial photograph (GB95.FR.28). A copy of aerial photograph GB95.FR.27 is printed as Fig.2.6 in the following: Barrett, G.F. (2008) 'The archaeology of County Carlow: an aerial perspective, in T. McGrath and T.
