Midden in Fínis

Midden

What is recorded here

At the NE end of Fínis. This midden (exposed L c. 47m), which is visible along an indented stretch of dunes, was brought to our attention by Erin Gibbons in April 2014. It consists of a dark horizon (max. T 0.8m) that is visible between 0.3m and 0.5m below the sod cover. It is interspersed with limpet, periwinkle and oyster shells, as well as possible charcoal flecks. There is a storm beach at the base of the dunes.
