What is recorded here

In rough undulating hill pasture, on a rise on a W-facing slope within a network of relict field boundaries (CO115-060----). Turf-cutting has exposed the remains of a circular hut site (diam. 2.8m) which are defined by the lower courses of a stone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.5m) that protrudes above a low uncut bank of peat. Rubble is scattered in the level interior and intermittently around the perimeter of the hut site. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
