What is recorded here

In 2000 archaeological excavation by Donald Murphy revealed evidence of a Fulacht Fiadh which consisted of a burnt spread if stones covering an area approx. 14.5m E-W by 8m with a thickness of 0.2m. Removal of this spread revealed no archaeological features beneath. An irregularly shaped pit (1.05m x 1.4m) lay immediately S of the burnt spread. Two medieval sherds of pottery were recovered from the fill of the trough (Bennett 2002, 318). Excavation was carried out under licence No. 00E0210. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien.
