Hut site in Cloontreem

In rough undulating hill pasture, on a W-facing slope within a network of relict field boundaries (CO115-090001-). The remains of a circular hut site (diam 2.1m) defined by a stone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.55m) which survives best NE-S. Elsewhere the wall of the hut site has collapsed downslope to the W. The hut site is raised (H 0.2m) at the W and cut (0.4m) into the upslope at the E creating an almost level interior.
