What is recorded here
Listed as Mín na Saileach 11 (Costello 2016, 344-5; Costello 2020, 85, 91). Probable sod-built hut site (ext. dims. 4.6m x 3.6m; int. dims. 4m x 2m), roughly rectangular in shape, aligned N-S. Consists of two parallel low banks (Wth 1m; H 0.25m) in close proximity to one another. Lower S end is open and likely to have been an entrance. No bank along N end, but ground is slightly higher here so the edge may blend in with the natural. Located in dry, grassy area 40m N of stream.
