What is recorded here

Situated just W of centre within a cashel (CL016-049001-). Indicated on the 1840 and 1916 OS 6-inch maps. The cashel and houses are described by Westropp (1913, 254) as ‘a ring-wall of poor coarse crag slabs nearly levelled when some houses were built in it’. A rectangular structure (int. dims. 6.3m E-W; 2.2m N-S) defined by a double-faced drystone wall (Wth c. 1m; H c. 0.5m) with some loose rubble. The remains of a second house (CL016-049003-) lie c. 7.5m to the E. Both houses are on a D-shaped platform (L c. 20m; Wth c. 10m) defined along the periphery by a dip.
