Description
Located in a forest clearing on the upper E-facing slopes of Saggart Hill immediately above the Slade Valley and overlooking the Verschoyles Hills (Kilbride-Jones 1950, 313-32). Prior to excavation of the site in the 1940s the site comprised a central mound (Wth 8.4m; H 1.2m) defined by a fosse (Wth 3.2m; D 0.7m), a bank (Wth 2m; H 0.75m) and an external v-shaped fosse (Wth 2.25m; D 0.84m; overall diam.41m). Both fosses had an outer retaining wall. Excavation revealed that the central mound covered two burials, both cremations, which were laid directly on a clay surface accompanied by Early Iron Age pottery. This composite site had been constructed over a habitation site and a timber structure referred to as a 'Sanctuary site' by the excavator. The habitation site consisted of five hut sites and a single communal fireplace. The 'Sanctuary site' was represented by three fireplaces and a total of 160 post-holes forming no clear pattern. The site is very overgrown with furze and regenerating trees. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout and Padraig Clancy Revised upload on: 6 July 2018
