What is recorded here

Lacknahaghny holds a twenty-five metre earthen ring where human hands built a boundary the land still remembers. cattle may circle it now, but the shape resists forgetting. The drowned ditch has vanished, yet the bank remains tall enough to touch, marked by rain and grass rather than explanation.

In pasture. Circular area (diam. 25m) defined by earth and stone bank (H 1.2m). External fosse noted by Hartnett (1939, 69) no longer visible. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
