What is recorded here

Discovered during field-walking after the January/February 2014 storms (pers. comm. M. Gibbons). Eroding out of a low (H 1.5m) stepped, sand and peaty E-face just above a smooth bedrock shore c. 58m SE of St. MacDara’s Church (GA076-020001-) and ‘below’ the cross slab (GA076-020008-) overlooking the landing area. Two burials were noted; one comprising a pelvis and the second, some 0.7m to the S, two long-bones. This is one of three locations where the storms have revealed previously unrecorded burials: see also GA076-024---- and GA076-025----. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 08 April 2014
