Cousin · Ireland

clochán

A dry-stone beehive hut with a corbelled stone roof on Ireland's Atlantic coast.

Built by early medieval monks on the Dingle Peninsula and Skellig Michael, clocháns lay overlapping flat stones slanted slightly outward to shed Atlantic rain while locking together by gravity.
