What is recorded here
Four earthen rings stood in Glengarriff More when Power wrote in 1923, but the fourth has vanished. The remaining three keep their shape in the more, holding the shape of lives that stopped running around them centuries ago.
Power (1923, 183) records four lioses in this townland, the 'fourth specimen has been destroyed'. Exact location not known.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
