What is recorded here

Under the cliff-edge fort in Milleens, a narrow trench slopes south into a low stone-lined passage that opens at the edge of a steep bank above the river. The cut is small enough to crawl through, yet the heavy lintels and deliberate shape suggest people moved through darkness to reach a hidden exit. Nearby a worn bullaun stone and a corn-drying kiln remind the place that it served both ritual and daily life.

In a cliff-edge fort (KE102-101001-). An open trench (L 4.5m; Wth 1.4m; H 0.8m) slopes down from the N to the S to a passage (L 3.1m; Wth 1.65m; H 0.9m), which leads to the edge of a steep scarped bank high above the river. Large stone lintels, some in a precarious state, rest on the earth-cut sides of the passage. A bullaun stone (KE102-101003-) lies c. 30m to the NNE and there is a corn-drying kiln (KE102-101005-) c. 25m to the NW.
