What is recorded here

To S of a small E-flowing stream on low-lying level pastureland from which a low but steep-sided ridge rises to S. An oval mound of burnt stone (12.1m E–W; 7.8m N–S; H 1.1m) with a slight indentation at the E end of the N side probably indicating a trough area. Livestock have disturbed the N side of the mound revealing the composition. There are three more fulachtaí fia in this cluster, one 5m to the N on the other side of the stream (CL006-081001-) and two more, 5m to the E (CL006-081003-) and 15m (CL006-081004-) to the S.
