Hut site

What is recorded here

Hut site in Skreen Beg is a hut site in Skreen Beg, County Sligo, Ireland. Two metres north of the outer foot of the Skreen Beg rath bank stands a small, raised, roughly square platform of earth and stone, three metres across. Its south-east, south-west and north-west edges drop away as a forty-centimetre scarp, while a field wall forms the north-east boundary. No remains show beyond that wall, and the original entrance has become unrecognisable.
