What is recorded here

Indicated is a faded fairy fort in County Cork, a shallow twenty-metre ring hidden beneath pasture on a north-facing slope. Its earthen edge has nearly vanished, leaving only a low rise that can be read through patience rather than seen at once. The forges and chambers of legend may still turn inside that forgotten circle, waiting for a person stubborn enough to stop doubting the shape of the ground.

In pasture, on N-facing slope. Depicted as circular area (diam. c. 22m) enclosed by broken line on 1937 OS 6-inch map. Circular area (21.3m E-W; 20m N-S) enclosed by low rise (H 0.3m) NE->SSE and S->NNW; rise less clearly defined elsewhere. 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
