What is recorded here
Foilogohig once held a levelled ringfort wide enough for thirty-nine yards of shadow, but human hands or hunger erased the mark. John Angland owns the forgotten ground, depriving curiosity of a destination. What rages inside is not a palace but a missing shape, a hole in the world where memory should be.
Bowman (1934, 447) recorded levelled single-ramparted fort (diam. c. 39yd) on John Angland's land. Exact location not known.
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.
