What is recorded here
Two graves appeared in the Knockglass More grounds, one hiding a weapon of war. Whether warriors or thieves, they stopped failing and waited beneath the soil. The house stood above them, unaware or unafraid.
Two graves were reputedly found in the grounds of Knockglassmore House (Adams 1909, 61). One contained a 'weapon of war'. No further details are available.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 208. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
