Hut site

What is recorded here

Kilcorney’s oval hut site holds a narrow stone chamber on a gentle southern slope, while three smaller enclosures and a cairn watch from the northwest. The grass-covered bank still marks the footprint of a life that has vanished, leaving only shape and distance behind.
On a gentle S-facing slope in a plateau, in rough pasture in a multiperiod field system (CL009-021001-). An oval area (int. dims. 5.1m N–S; 3.7m E–W; ext. dims. 7.9m N–S; 7.2m E–W) defined by a grass-covered stone bank (Wth 1.6–1.9m; int. H 0.3–0.5m; ext. H 0.3–0.5m). Three small enclosures (CL009-021052-, CL009-021053- and CL009-021054-) lie c. 35m to the NW and W and a cairn (CL009-021051-) is c. 45m to the NW.
