Indicated — Gortagullane (magunihy By.)

In rough fern and tree-covered pasture, on the edge of a steep W-facing slope, with two large natural depressions on the E side. A subrectangular area (c. 37.3m N-S; 41m E-W) defined by a curving, drystone wall (at W: T 0.55m; int. H 0.75m; ext. H 1.2m; at N: T 1m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.95m and at S: H 2m) along the N and S arcs and elsewhere by a more linear-type wall. A largely collapsed wall forms the E side, which is in a natural depression. The upper courses of all the walls have a core of mainly smaller stones, which appear to be from field clearance. Larger stones and boulders are used in the lower courses. The entrance (Wth 5m) is at E. The interior is largely obscured by ferns and deciduous trees and slopes gently down to E. A partially collapsed linear drystone wall (L 13.3m; T 2.7m; H 1.4m) extends S into the interior from the inner face of the enclosing element at N. The N end of this wall forms the W side of a hut site (KE075-001002-) and the S end abuts a second hut site (KE075-001001-).
