What is recorded here
In rough hill pasture, on a NE-facing slope and just NE of the summit of Lackacroghan. A circular area (7m N-S; 6.7m E-W) is defined by the poorly preserved remains of an earthen bank (Wth 0.9m; H 0.15m) from which stones protrude (H 0.1m) at irregular intervals. The N quadrant of the interior is raised (H 0.35m) by a partially grass-covered stone revetment. Rushes obscure most of the interior.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
