What is recorded here

Situated in wet, marshy pasture at the base of an E-W ridge. Not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch map. Four fulachta fiadh in proximity. The first three are located along the SE side of a NE-SW drain. There are intervening spaces of 30m and 35m between them. The fourth lies at the NW side of the drain. This, the fourth fulacht fia, comprises a D-shaped rise (dims. 13m NE-SW; 11.3m NW-SE - H 0.6m) composed of fragments of burnt stone in block soil. The drain cuts through the SW side where the trough was presumably located. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
