What is recorded here

Magic breathes through the soil there, shaping the earth into a living cage. The chamber holds a chamber, and each chamber holds a smaller chamber, nesting like a whispered name repeated until it becomes a knife. What is forbidden does not leave the chamber, it teaches the chamber to follow everyone who enters. The boundary has no edge because the chamber uses the edge of every living thing that touches it.

In rolling pasture. Circular raised area (diam. c. 40m) defined by scarp (H 1.3m); slope from scarp forms a fosse separating it from two concentric earthen banks with intervening fosse. Inner bank (H 1.45m) visible to N, Sand W. Outer bank (H 0.9m) survives to NE, with shallow external fosse (D 0.4m). Enclosure heavily overgrown with bushes. 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
