Hut site in Rossmackowen Commons

In rough hill pasture, on a break on a steep S-facing rocky slope, overlooking Bere Island and Bantry Bay. The remains of a circular hut site (4.1m N-S; 4m E-W) defined by a bank (Wth 0.55m; H 0.2m) from which stones protrude intermittently. The level interior is in pasture and is raised (H 0.2m) at the S to compensate for the hillslope. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.
