House — indeterminate date in Dromore

Monument surveyed by ASI in 1977 and described as following; 'A roughly rectangular enclosure (WM032-041----) bounded by a low bank of stone and earth. The interior is fairly level for the most part with a small raised area at the NW around a rectangular house site (WM032-041001-) which is in the NW corner of the site against the bank. There is a smaller house/hut site (WM032-041002-) against the bank on the E of the interior. The N and W walls of the larger house site are formed by the sites bank and its E and S walls by a slight bank of stone and earth with remains of stone facings at the SE corner and along the E wall. There are no internal features visible in the house site except for a small recess in the NE corner. The E wall of the small rectangular hut site is formed by the sites bank and its S, W and N walls by a low bank of earth and stone. There is a possible entrance in the S wall just at the SE corner. There is a small stretch of an earth and stone bank running in from the sites bank to the N of the hut site and this may form the N wall of a larger house/hut site whose S wall was formed by the N wall of the hut site. There is a slight drop in ground level between these two banks which may indicate the floor area of this house/hut site, but there is no trace of a W wall. There is a large boulder just S of the NW house site. The perimeter is partly overgrown with thorn trees. The site is on the E and higher end of a small ridge in undulating land of fairly good pasture. There are good views to the NW, W and SW, but the view to the N, E and S is blocked by the surrounding ridges' (SMR File 15/09/1977).
