What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Lissacrue, County Cork: an earthen ringfort on a hillock now hidden under tillage. Local information still calls it the site of the lios of Lissacrue, though no surface trace remains. The field may have swallowed the fort, or the fort may have withdrawn into the story told about it.

In tillage, atop hillock. According to local information 'the site of the lios of Lissacrue'. No visible surface trace. 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. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
