What is recorded here

In pasture, on an E-facing slope. According to Myler (1998, 115-16), the site of a burial ground, known locally as the 'Russian grave' is marked by a lone ash tree which is on the line of a levelled 'bank'. Stones piled against the N field boundary of the field may have been grave-markers (ibid.). There are no visible remains of this burial ground though the ash tree and the possible grave-markers were noted. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
A local ancient tomb; wider significance not recorded.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
