What is recorded here

Leahan Mountain drops into a narrow valley where six hut sites cluster like forgotten markers. Rushes and heather swallow most of the stone, but one collapsed wall still outlines a small living space. The sea glints south and Slieve League rises west, watching the place where people once fitted their lives into the slope.

In poorly drained rushy covered mountain pasture, in small river valley, on the SE facing slope of Leahan Mountain with views of the sea to the S and Slieve League to the W. This is one hut site of a clustered settlement of six hut sites (DG089-026004/010-). A cluster of 3 hut sites (DG089-026001/003-) are located 100m to the W. The poorly preserved heather covered remains of a possible hut site (ext. dims 3.66m N-S; 2.5m E-W) defined by a collapsed drystone wall. Nearby hut site (DG089-026007-) is 7.5m to the W with another hut site (DG089-026004-) 4.85m to the S. Located in an area of a dense concentration of hut sites which appear to make up a clustered settlement (DG089-026001/021).
