What is recorded here

On a bare, level limestone terrace (on the 200 foot contour) with good views out to sea from SSW to NNW. Not recorded on the first edition of the OS 6-inch map but indicated on the later, Cassini edition (1915). An almost circular area (19.5m N-S; 18.7m E-W) is defined by a loosely constructed, single drystone wall. One stone is set on its edge at N (L 1.4m; H 0.9m; T 0.4m), and two inclined jamb stones with similar dimensions (H c. 1.1m; Wth 0.6-0.7m at base; T 0.1-0.24m) form a narrow but well-defined entrance (Wth 0.4m at base; Wth 1.2m at top) at S which is blocked by two stones. A small rectangular annex (4.2m E-W; 3.2m N-S) abuts the outer face of the enclosing wall at NW and traces of a smaller, narrower annex abut at NE. See attached CL004-022----_1: overall view from SSW with ranging rod at entrance gap. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy and Lynda McCormack Date of upload: 30 September 2022
