Recorded monuments

• CO130-045 Hut site
  Description

  On rough hill pasture, on a NE-SW terrace on the NW-facing slopes of Gouladane overlooking Bantry Bay. The remains of a rectangular hut site (6m E-W; 3.2m N-S) defined by the lower courses of a stone wall (T 0.65m; H 1m). The entrance (Wth 0.65m) is at the centre of the N wall. Rubble is scattered in the level interior and along the external perimeter. The entire hut site, which is sheltered by a steeply rising ridge at the SE, is obscured by a dense cover of ferns and heather. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009

• CO130-046001 Hut site
  Description

  In rough hill pasture, on a NE-SW terrace on the NW-facing slopes of Gouladane overlooking Bantry Bay. The remains of a circular hut site (3.8m E-W; 3.5m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.8m; H 0.4m). A break along the NE arc may indicate the entrance location. Rubble is scattered in the interior and ferns obscure the entire hut site. Another hut site (CO130-046002-) abuts this hut site externally at the E.

• CO130-046002 Hut site
  Description

  In rough hill pasture, on a NE-SW terrace on the NW-facing slopes of Gouladane overlooking Bantry Bay. The remains of an oval hut site (2.8m NE-SW; 1.9m NW-SE) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.65m; H 0.35m) that contains mainly large stones. Ferns obscure the entire hut site. Another hut site (CO130-046001-) abuts this hut site at the W. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).

• CO130-047 Hut site
  Description

  In rough hill pasture, on a NE-SW terrace on the NW-facing slopes of Gouladane overlooking Bantry Bay. The remains of a circular hut site (4.9m N-S; 4.75 E-W) defined by a jumbled stone wall (T 0.55m; H 0.3m) which protrudes from a low bank, especially along the S arc. The interior is raised (H 0.2m) above ground level. The hut site may have been used in more recent times as a turf stand for stacking dry turf. There are many such turf stands on this hillside.

• CO130-048 Enclosure
  Description

  On a NE-SW rough hill pasture terrace on the NW-facing slopes of Gouladane overlooking Bantry Bay. A circular area (int. diam. 8m) is defined by large stones (up to 0.8m x 0.4m and H 0.4m) set intermittently on the perimeter S-E. Two adjoining rectangular box-like structures (1.2m N-S; 1.05m E-W; H 0.5m and 1.1m N-S; 0.85m E-W; H 0.4m) defined by stone slabs abut the perimeter internally at S. Their function is unclear. The presence of similar stones in a more jumbled state nearby suggests the possibility of further internal structures. Ferns partially obscure the enclosure.
