What is recorded here
No visible basin, only a long black scar in the pasture beside marshy ground. Heat and water may have worked there before the ringfort rose, but the earth kept the shape while forgetting the purpose.
In pasture, c. 100m NE of ringfort (12534). Elongated mound of burnt material (11.4m N-S; 4m E-W; H 0.45m); marshy ground immediately to N and W.
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.
