What is recorded here

Ardkitt East holds a broken fairy fort where a field fence cuts through the northern earth. The remaining circular ridge spans twenty-seven metres across pasture, preserving the shape of hands that built against the slope. A dark passage may still breathe underneath the grass, waiting for someone brave enough to stop pretending the ground is empty.

In pasture on S-facing slope. Circular area (c. 27m E-W) defined by undulation NE->WNW. Field fence running E-W truncates edge of interior on N side. Possible Man-made underground passage (CO109-081---) in interior. (Desertserges Parish History 1978, 6). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
