Hut site in Dromdoohig More

Hut site

What is recorded here

Dromdoohig More preserves a circular stone hut inside a rath, its two-metre wall still standing beside the inner bank. The south entrance faces the open field while a possible underground passage disappears into the earth beneath the floor. Whoever built this small chamber did not seek grandeur, but a hidden place where thought could descend and return changed.
Within the NE quadrant of a rath (KE058-060----). The remains of a circular hut (diam. 2m), defined by a stone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.3m) abuts the inner face of the inner bank of the rath at NE. The entrance is at S. There is a possible Man-made underground passage (KE058-060001-) in the interior.
