Outlined

Moated site

What is recorded here

Outlined is a moated site in County Limerick, Ireland. The rectangular earthworks still rise above pasture near Kilfinnane, marking a place where people shaped the land before written records. A standing stone and pits lie nearby, hinting that the area served more than farming. The boundary between human design and natural change remains blurred.
In pasture, immediately E of townland boundary with Kilfinnane. A standing stone (LI048-110----) and pits (LI048-111001/003-) lie 105m to the SW.
