What is recorded here

Seventeen hut sites orbit the Lissachiggel ringfort, forming a dense neighbourhoood rather than a lonely farm. This is one of them: a small footprint in County Louth where people likely lived, worked and endured weather beside others. The multiplicity matters more than any single hole; it suggests a settled community confident enough to keep returning.

The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 16 November 2011 One of 17 hut sites at 'Lissachiggel' ringfort (see LH004-050001-).
