What is recorded here

Fairy forts and human forts may share one shape. A ring of earth, a broken edge, a field that forgets. The distinction stops mattering when the ring still works.

In tillage, on S-facing slope, overlooking small stream valley. Depicted as hachured circular enclosure (diam. c. 25m) on 1842 OS 6-inch map, truncated by avenue to W. Levelled; no visible surface trace. 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
