What is recorded here
In rough heather-covered hill pasture, on a NW-facing slope with views N over Sliabh Luachra. The remains of an oval hut (3m NE-SW; 2.5m NW-SE) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.75m) which is obscured by moss and ferns. The level, rubble-covered interior is cut (D 0.7m) into the upslope at S to compensate for the hillslope. Another hut site (KE068-127003-) lies c. 14m to the N.
