NG 53950 14170

Alternative spelling Alt na Cille. Rock-cut souterrain. Sample excavations within the gallery produced a loom weight (illus. in Miket 2002 colour plate 13) and charcoal. Environmental analysis from the floor produced evidence of alder, hazel, willow, hulled six-row barley, pale persicaria and chickweed. (Miket 2002).
