What is recorded here
Ballycrinnigan holds a four-metre stone circle on a west-facing slope, perhaps a hut wall or a cairn waiting for memory. Two large northern stones mark a possible entrance, inviting imagination about the people who shaped that small terrace.
On a small terrace on a W facing slope, a circular area (diam. 4.2m, H 0.4m) defined by a spread of stones which are possibly the collapsed remains of the walls of a hut site or the remnants of a cairn. There are two large stones on the N side which may represent an entrance. Recorded by Ó Murchú (2011, 106) as part of a Master's thesis (Survey number: UN07).
