What is recorded here

Furnace in Cloonbrackna is a furnace in Cloonbrackna, County Roscommon, Ireland. L. Morahan excavated the site in 2006 and found iron slag, charcoal and fire-redenned clay cutting a roadway surface. An adult female and baby burial later cut the furnace remains, leaving very little of the iron structure behind.

On level, low-lying ground. Excavated (06E1097) in 2006 by L. Morahan. The surface of roadway (RO039-043021-) was cut by an iron furnace, evident as iron slag, charcoal and fire-redenned clay but very little of it survived as it was in turn cut by the burial of an adult female and baby (RO039-043023-).
