House – indeterminate date, Kilcorney, Co. Clare

In the townland of Kilcorney, in County Clare, there is a house that nobody can quite date.

It has been recorded as a monument, flagged as a structure worth noting, and then left in a kind of archival limbo, its age and history officially unresolved. The designation "indeterminate date" is not as uncommon as it might sound in Irish archaeology, applied to buildings that have lost too many diagnostic features, or that were simply never studied closely enough, to place them confidently in any particular century. What it does suggest is a structure that has outlasted easy explanation.
