What is recorded here

Indicated is a broken stone ring on a Clare hill, large enough to hold a dozen people and small enough to forget. It has no door, which suggests either the entrance collapsed or the circle was never meant to be entered easily. Two hut marks sit inside like abandoned thoughts, and a newer wall cuts across the place as if someone stopped listening to the older shape.

On a high prominent location with views from NE to NW, within a multiperiod field system (CL005-115001-). Indicated on the 1916 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. Listed as 'Earthwork' in the RMP (1996). A poorly preserved roughly circular cashel (diam. 20-21m) defined by a stone spread (Wth 1.4-1.7m) with outer wall-facing at SW (max. H 0.4) and at NW (max. H0.6m), and no clear entrance. There are two small huts (CL005-076003- and CL005-076004-) (diams. 2-2.5m) in the SW sector divided by a low bank which extends NE across the centre. A later wall runs on the outer edge from NNW-ESE and a pen abuts its interior at N. Another cashel (CL005-076001-) lies c. 30m to the SW.
