Hut site in Tullydush Lower

Hut site

What is recorded here

Yes. Tullydush Lower holds several hut sites, two house sites and a rock art panel within a short walk on Bawnloge Hill. The nearby huts formed a small mountain settlement, while the rock art suggests the place was also marked for memory or belief. People may have lived, herded and made symbols there before the field walls closed around the slope.
Situated on SSW facing slope of Bawnloge Hill in mountainous pasture. A hut site (DG029-057002-) is located 2m to the SSE. A third hut site (DG029-056) is located 110m to the NW and two house sites (DG029-053/054) are located 140m to the SE. A panel of rock art (DG029-051) is 57m to the NE. Present remains consist of a sub-rectangular shaped area (dims. 4m NNE-SSW; 3m WNW-ESE) defined by a low bank of earth and stone (Wall T 0.7m-1m) and a series of low contiguous stones. There is no evidence of any entrance feature. A field wall which is part of an extensive field system (DG029-052) is 14m to the N and 15m to the E and which appear to have enclosed a field containing these two hut sites.
