A #Tigh nAlluis is an early #Irish sweat-house. They look like little stone #beehives with a low doorway, and can still be seen dotted around the landscape today, although their true purpose is one of debate. A fire would be lit inside, in which stones were heated. The ashes would be scraped out, and water sprinkled onto the stones to produce a heavy vapour.
