What is recorded here

Marked on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map as a large sand pit. Not shown on the 1898 resurvey of the map but the name 'Fairy House', in Gothic script, had been added. However, this name was appended to a building c. 190m to the SE - see GA053-004---- on the 1st edition map, so its inclusion on the 1898 resurvey may relate to a mapping error. The site was not visited but the cartographic evidence suggests it was a quarry. As it is of post-AD 1700 date it does not come within the remit of the Archaeological Survey of Ireland.
