Burnt Mound / Fulacht Fia

wideford Jul 17, 2010

RCAHMS NMRS record no. HY21SE 26, located on the south side of the Lyking road junction at Voy, now consists of two mounds at HY25351496 & 7. A likely cist slab was found at the centre of the N mound but the later discovery of burnt material led to its present designation. It is a metre high, its companion slighter at 0.7m, but the centre would also be the centre of a mound incorporating both present mounds – the two stone blocks at the N side most likely having come from the unrecorded excavation of a site similar to Hawell burnt mound say
