In rough hill pasture, on a S-facing slope, in the valley of Coomeelan stream. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 2.4m) defined by a collapsed, partially grass-covered, drystone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.4m). The lower courses of the wall protrude above the surface of the bog. The S portion of the interior is raised (H 0.2m) and the N portion is cut (D 0.2m) into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope. The interior is level. There is another hut site (KE102-024005-) 1m to the S.
