What is recorded here
A large quantity of flint debitage with a low density of retouched pieces, found during a survey of seven fields in the Barnageeragh area in 1990. Preliminary analysis of the lithic material collected indicates a human presence from the Mesolithic to the Bronze Age period (Guinan 1992, 4-8). The field slopes steeply down to the north-east. Known locally as the 'Hanging Hill'.
