Situated on the S slopes of Piperstown Hill. A habitation site known as Site P. ‘Site P: A roughly circular ring of small stones which seldom rise above the present ground surface; some of the stones . . . are buried so deeply in the ground that they may be there naturally. It averages about 4-50 m. in internal diameter. The entrance appears to be in the S-E. Slightly off-centre is a rectangular hearth-site constructed of slabs of mica-schist, with its long axis orientated E-W. This is not, apparently, closed at its western end’ (Rynne and Ó hEailidhe 1965, 75) This is part of an extensive settlement and cemetery of Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age date.
