Kiln, corn-drying

What is recorded here

Located on a slope down to the E bank of a NNW-SSE section of the Barora River that is also known as the Owenroe and as the Moynalty River, and located c. 12m from the stream. Archaeological monitoring (07E0942) of a water scheme at Moynalty village identified a corn-drying kiln at the proposed location for a pumping station, and it was completely excavated under the same licence. The kiln was of the key-hole type (L 4m plus; max. Wth 1.6m; D 0.7m) and stone-lined. The bowl contained charred material including cereals.
