What is recorded here

Indicated is a square cashel in elevated Burren pasture, its drystone wall reduced to rubble spreads and a possible hut site hidden in the north-west quadrant. The entrance faces east between upright slabs, while a low stone inside hints at a forgotten use. People may have lived there, herded animals, or simply marked the rocky slope before the wall collapsed into the field system.

In elevated rocky pasture, with higher ground to the NW and within an extensive multiperiod field system (CL005-160001-). Indicated as an enclosure on the 1916 OS 6-inch map. Marked on Tim Robinson’s Burren map (1977). Listed as ‘Enclosure (possible)’ on the RMP (1996). A square cashel (33.5m N-S; 33m E-W) defined by a partially surviving drystone wall (Wth 1.1-1.3m), reduced to a rubble spread (Wth 1.4-1.8m) in places. Short stretches of outer wall-facing survive on the N (H 0.2-0.4m), E (H 0.7m), and S (H 0.8m) sides. No inner wall-facing survives. Most of the W wall appears to be modern. The entrance (Wth 1.15m) is in the E wall and is defined by a slab on its N side (H 0.4m) and stonework on its S side (H 0.45-0.9m). The interior is slightly raised to the E and centre, and a low upright stone in this area may indicate a former internal feature. There is a possible hut site (CL005-312----) in the NW quadrant of the cashel. A cairn (CL005-160048-) with two cists (CL005-160028-; CL005-160047-) is located c. 30m to the S.
