What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, on a SW-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Clydagh River. The remains of a circular hut (5.5m N-S; 5m E-W) defined by a collapsed, partially grass-covered, drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.4m). The SW portion of the interior is raised (H 0.4m) and the NE portion is cut (D 0.3m) into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope. The interior is level. There is rubble scattered along the perimeter. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork. Date of upload: 31 January 2011
