One of two hut sites (LI032-014007-) recorded by O’Kelly (1944, 48) as a sub-rectangular-shaped hut site which he described as follows: ‘These hut sites [LI032-014007-] are small cirque-like [amphitheatre shaped] hollows on a slope of Knockfennell. One is semi-circular [LI032-014007-] and the other sub-rectangular. Both are open in the W while the other sides consist of natural rock mostly. The latter has been hollowed out where it was high at the back and sides, and in one case some rough walling remains around the edge of the cirque. The diameter of one is 22 ft (6.7m) while the other measures 16 ft (4.85m) by 15 ft (2.5m). The depth of the rock cutting is about 3 ft (1m). Immediately behind each is an ancient fence.’ The precise location of these two hut site has not been confirmed and remains to be identified on the ground.
