What is recorded here

Carker Beg held a thirty-metre earthen ring on an east-facing slope until local people levelled it around 1846. The 1842 survey caught its circular shape before that much of the place vanished. It is gone now, but the erased line still belongs to the field.

In pasture, on E-facing slope. Depicted as hachured circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) on 1842 OS 6-inch map. No visible surface trace; according to local information levelled c. 1846. 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
