What is recorded here

Three concentric fosses circle a quiet field in Cregg North, their arcs breaking against a modern fence rather than fading into myth. The inner chamber measures twenty-five metres across while the outer reaches fifty, creating a vast empty space between ridges that invites speculation about ritual, residence or boundary. Four ring-ditches and a ringfort wait further northwest, suggesting the land held more life than the enclosure alone.

Incomplete cropmark of arcs (S->NNE) of three concentric fosses of circular enclosure (diam. inner fosse to inner fosse c. 25m; diam. outer fosse to outer fosse c. 50m) visible in aerial photograph (CASAP, July 1989); truncated by field fence at E side; inner and middle fosses widely spaced. Linear series of four ring-ditches (11911, 11912, 11913, 11914) c. 100m to NW and ringfort (12368) c. 150m to NW in same field. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
