What is recorded here

Listed as ‘Fulachta Fiadha’ in the RMP (1996). At the S end of a turlough. An oval mound of burnt and broken stone (8m ESE-WSW; 5m WNW-ENE; max. H 0.7m at E). An upright stone with a rounded crest, aligned E-W, stands at the N edge of the mound (H 0.5m; 0.85m x 0.3m). Another fulacht fia (CL017-186001-) lies c. 12m to the SE. Three fulachtaí fia were recorded c. 150m N of here (pers. comm. T. Coffey, SMR file). It would appear that that locational information was incorrect due to a transfer from small to large scale mapping. There is a gravel bank (L c. 9m; Wth c. 3m) c. 30m N of CL017-186002- which may have been misinterpreted as a third fulacht fia. Compiled by: Mary Tunney Date of upload: 6 October 2014
