What is recorded here
Knockaneroe holds a lost fort in County Cork, perhaps buried under P. O'Callaghan's land or vanished entirely. Bowman recorded a levelled single-ramparted enclosure in 1934, yet even that trace has slipped from human memory. The earth keeps its own counsel, hiding what it wishes and revealing only what it chooses to remember.
Bowman (1934, 497) recorded levelled single-ramparted fort in P. O'Callaghan's land. Exact location not known.
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.
