Hut site in Rossacroo

In rough heather-covered hill pasture, on the edge of a terrace on a NW-facing slope with views N over Sliabh Luachra. The remains of a roughly circular hut (4.5m N-S; 4m E-W) defined by a moss-covered collapsed drystone wall (T 1m; H 0.55m) which is best preserved along the S arc. A break (Wth 0.7m) at NE may mark the entrance location. The level interior is obscured by overgrowth. The remains of a small square annexe (1.4m N-S; 1.5m E-W; H 0.2m) abuts the exterior at NW. There is a hut site (KE068-127002-) c. 14m to the S and an enclosure (KE068-127001-) lies c. 200m to the SW.
