What is recorded here
Levallinree holds two possible fulacht fia sites in damp Mayo pasture, separated by thirty metres and overshadowed by a rath ninety metres away. The main mound stretches nine metres across but rises only ten to sixty centimetres, hiding burnt stone beneath grass and a later band of rushes. People may have heated water there for cooking, cleaning or ritual before farming ridges crossed the site. The rath above still watches the place where heat once rose from damp earth.
In low-lying damp pasture on the lower W-facing slope of a ridge. Reported as a possible fulacht fia (SMR file). This is a low roughly circular grass-covered mound of burnt stone (diam. 9m; H 0.1m along E – 0.3m along N and S – 0.6m along W). A band of rushes (Wth 1m) running E-W across the site may be the remains of a later cultivation ridge. A second possible fulacht fia (MA070-018001-) lies c. 30m to the W and a rath (MA070-019 ----) overlooks the site from the ridge c. 90m to the NE.
