What is recorded here

A group of four hut sites (SL005-033002-, SL005-033003-, SL005-033005-, SL005-033006-) can be distinguished in the N portion of the area. The hut sites are located to the N of a curving relict field boundary in a semi-circular area (area c. 2 acres) of low rocky pasture at the base of the hillock that lies to the E. The hut sites are clearly in a group and enclosed within the semi-circular area distinct from the remainder of the area. The ground here is rocky, undulates irregularly with a slight W-facing slope. Views are excellent inland SW - W, excellent toward the sea W - N and poor to higher ground N - SW. This hut site is located c. 20m to the E of hut site SL005-03301- and c. 20m to the NW of SL005-03305-. It consists of a rectangular area (4.55m E-W; 1.65m N-S) defined by an earth and stone bank (Wth 1.7m; H 0.3m). The bank encloses the site W - NE and SE - SW and is absent elsewhere. The original entrance is not recognisable. The interior is undulates gently, sloping slightly facing N and is clear of overgrowth. The area around the hut undulates irregularly possibly indicating other structures/features. Compiled by: Mark Keegan, Paul Walsh Date of upload: 11 June 2013
