Hut site in Shehy Beg

In rough hill grazing, on bog, on a terrace on the upper S-facing slopes of Shehy Beg. The remains of a circular hut site (2.6m N-S; 2.4m E-W) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.4m) which protrudes above the surface of shallow bog. A jumble of stones adjoining the perimeter externally at the SE may represent the remains of an annexe or an entrance feature. Another hut site (CO093-078002-) is c. 20m to the NW.
