House – indeterminate date, Anneville, Co. Clare

In the townland of Anneville in County Clare stands a house whose age nobody has pinned down.

It appears in the archaeological record simply as a structure of indeterminate date, which is itself a quietly telling designation. Most buildings earn a century, at least, even a rough one. This one has not, and that absence of certainty is the most interesting thing currently known about it.

The source material for the site has not yet been made available, meaning that the specifics of the structure, its form, its dimensions, its relationship to the surrounding landscape, remain out of public reach for the moment. Anneville is a small Clare townland, and Clare itself has a layered archaeological landscape ranging from prehistoric to post-medieval, but without further detail it would be wrong to place this particular house within any of those broader stories.
