Visible in section in the eroding, vertical land-edge scarp on the SE shoreline of Inishglora.
A possible pit (Wth 0.4-0.8m; D 0. 35-0.4m) is visible approximately mid-way along the length of a midden layer (MA016-020----), at a point where the midden appears thin and insubstantial. The exact relationship of the pit to the midden is unclear; it certainly cuts into the clean sand layer beneath the midden. The pit appeared to be squarish in cross- section, filled with dark brown, charcoal-flecked sandy soil, with two large stones, lying horizontally, one above the other at the upper E side of the fill. A number of displaced human bones were noted in August 2016 lying exposed on the ground surface at the base of the section face.
