What is recorded here

In flat, low-lying terrain on a slight rise of ground immediately NE of a stream, now covered, running NW-SE. Ground formerly very wet and marshy but reclaimed early summer 2018 when the field was drained and seeded with grass. This and five other fulachta fiadh (KK008-203----; KK008-204----; KK008-206----; KK008-207----; KK008-208----) were exposed during the reclamation work. They form a roughly linear alignment along the NE bank of the stream. Located 42m SE of KK008-204---- and 60m NW of KK008-206----. Ploughed out low mound (dims. 12m NW-SE; 9m NE-SW; H c. 0.1m), much darker than surrounding field with some fire-cracked stone on the surface.
