What is recorded here

In pasture, on a low rise. A circular slightly raised area (diam. c. 20m) surrounded by a fosse and a slight external bank is visible as a shadow site in an aerial photograph taken in 1956 (ACAP, V 245/96-7). This possible barrow is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork. Date of upload: 31 January 2011
A Bronze Age barrow, likely a ring barrow or bell barrow, with a surrounding ditch and external bank. Its presence indicates early ceremonial or funerary activity in the area, though its specific cultural or regional significance remains unclear due to lack of excavation or detailed study.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
