In low-lying rocky pasture. Circular area (23m E-W; 23m N-S) enclosed by collapsed dry-stone wall best preserved ESE->W (int. H 1.6m; ext. H 1m; Wth. top 2m) but reduced in height and covered by overgrowth elsewhere (int. H 0.6m; ext. H 0.65m; Wth top 2m).

According to Graham Hull (02E0661) 'this site was examined as part of Bord Gáis Éireann's Pipeline to the West. An isolated bowl-shaped pit, 0.44m in diameter and 0.15m deep, was excavated. The fill was a fine, mid-brown silt with occasional charcoal inclusions. No artefacts were recovered, and it is not possible to date the feature. The presence of fire-oxidised clay to the south-west, however, suggests in situ burning.'

Excavated by Brian Halpin (02E0750) when 'topsoil-stripping of Bord Gáis Éireann's Pipeline to the West uncovered a spread of burnt material associated with fulacht fiadh activity. This site, a thin spread of charcoal-rich material with heat-shattered stone, was partially exposed at the edge of the pipeline corridor and measured c. 10m in diameter. No trough or other features were encountered. A small stream lying c. 6m to the west of the site continually flooded the area, making excavation extremely difficult.'

Excavated by Brian Halpin (02E0741) when 'topsoil-stripping on Bord Gáis Éireann's Pipeline to the West uncovered a burnt spread in Baunreagh townland, Co. Limerick (BGE 3/51/1). The spread measured 5.2m north-west/south-east along the limit of excavation. It is estimated that it had a possible extent of 1.6m north-south. It was composed of a very thin deposit of charcoal-rich material and heat-shattered stones. The site was cleaned to reveal an irregular spread lying on a grey/white silty clay. Pipe-laying works disturbed large sections of the spread, with two large digger buckets of material being scooped out of the centre. Investigations at the site did not reveal any troughs or features associated with the burnt spread.'

Excavated by Brian Halpin (02E0741; BGE 3/51/2) when 'pproximately 30m north-west of the above site (LI020-163001-) was BGE 3/51/2. Six shallow pits/depressions cut into the yellow/grey clay subsoil were excavated. These features were very irregular in shape, with no discernible cut. All contained heat-shattered stone and charcoal-rich material, indicating fulacht fiadh activity. All were fairly shallow, and the largest had a maximum length of 3.8m north-south. It is probable that they were contemporary with the adjacent fulacht fiadh activity. None shows any evidence of function, and they may be undulations in the natural, filled in with burnt material. The site is in very wet, boggy land.'
