What is recorded here

Killaneer holds a forgotten ringfort, buried beneath soil and time. No wall or ditch remains visible, yet the land still carries the shape of human hands. What was built there has vanished, but the name preserves the form. Forgetting never completes itself; it only changes shape.

Tradition of ringfort. No visible surface trace. 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
