What is recorded here

This possible fulacht fiadh came to light during the course of fieldwork on the AranLIFE Farming Project (2014-2018) (see www.aranlife.ie). It is located at the S tip of the island on level ground, in an area of rough grazing and exposed limestone pavement. It is defined by a horseshoe-shaped mound (12m by 6m) with a central depression (Wth 2.5m) facing N towards an existing water source. No burnt stone is evident.
