What is recorded here

Maytown holds two circular marks, one a ringfort and one an enclosure, both drawn by hunger rather than chisel. The second sits south of the first, matching it in size, while reduced photography and agricultural inventory preserve what soil and seed revealed.

In tillage, on NE-facing slope. Cropmark (CASAP) shows univallate circular enclosure to S of ringfort (CO089-050---) and of similar dimensions. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
