Hut site

What is recorded here

Death and rebirth are not the same in the Burren. The Burren is a place where life and death are not the same. The boundary between life and death is not a line. It is a door. A living person can walk through that door. The dead can walk back through it. The Burren does not hide this. The Burren shows it every day.
In pasture on the Burren plateau, at the S base of a low E–W ridge, within a multiperiod field system (CL009-001001-). A circular hut site (int. diam. 2.4m N–S) defined by mainly grass-covered foundations stones (Wth c. 0.5m). No entrance is visible.
