What is recorded here

Indicated is a stone-faced ringfort in County Cork, its earthen bank rising nearly two metres around a circular pasture. The interior tilts slightly against the hillslope, suggesting people lived there long enough to shape the land rather than simply occupy it. A gap remains on the east side, waiting for carts, cattle, or visitors who never returned to be remembered.

In pasture, atop slight rise, land falls down gently to S. Roughly circular area (38.6m E-W; 35.5m N-S) enclosed by earthen bank (H 1.95m), stone-faced externally E->SSW. Gap in bank to E; modern gaps to NE and NW. Interior appears to be raised slightly on S side to compensate for hillslope; ploughed in the past. 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
