Hut site in Glanmane

Hut site

What is recorded here

In a shallow hollow above Tralee Bay, a broken stone ring still marks the footprint of a small dwelling. Sheep graze beside it now, but the shape suggests a life of warmth, shadow and repeated return. The land has changed around the hut, yet the hollow keeps its memory intact.
Sited in a natural hollow on a N facing slope with views over Tralee Bay. Land use is rough grazing for sheep. To the N is an extensive area of conifer plantation. D-shaped hut site (ext. dims. 3.8m N-S x 2.6m E-W; wall H 0.5m) in a natural depression in the slope with an entrance to the SE. Two sections of relict field boundary are located just to the SE.
