What is recorded here

Mohereen held a thirty-yard earthen ringfort on P. Turner's land before leveling erased its exact shape. Bowman recorded the vanished rampart in 1934, preserving the fort's size even though the ground no longer marks its boundary. The fairies keep their own fort there, unchanged beneath the soil, waiting for someone reckless enough to dig where human tools have already failed.

Bowman (1934, 585) recorded levelled, single-ramparted fort (diam. c. 30yd) on P. Turner'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. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
