What is recorded here

On an E-W rough pasture ridge with occasional outcropping rock, beside the seashore on the S side of Blackball Harbour. The poorly preserved remains of an oval hut site (6m N-S; 3.2m E-W) defined by intermittent stretches of a bank (Wth 0.8m; H 0.2m). Some stones protrude occasionally above the surface of the bank. Grass-covered stones occur within the interior. There is a hut site (CO127-050002-) 5m to the W and another hut site (CO127-050004-) is c. 10m to the NNW. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
