What is recorded here

Identified from an aerial survey by Markus Casey who described this possible monument as the middle of a series of three small S-facing triangular headlands which shows slight evidence of having been enclosed by a straight earthen bank. The area is one of fertile pasture and sheer 150’ high cliffs. The headland is flanked by sheltered coves. (Casey 2001) Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 24 November 2021
