Hut site in Carnaweeleen

On a rocky spur on the lower NE-facing slopes of Kesh Corann and immediately W of Poulagaddy cave (SL040-006003-). A subcircular area (5m E-W; 4.8m N-S) defined by a 'wall' of single contiguous moss-covered stones. This 'wall' is best defined S-NW but there are breaks at N and SE. The interior slopes gently down to NW. A subrectangular arrangement (c. 6m E-W; c. 5m N-S) of mostly widely spaced stones, sharing its W side with the hut site, was noted immediately to the E, surrounding the entrance to the cave. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
