What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort in County Cork, a circular earthen ring standing one metre high around a open pasture. A stone fence cuts across the middle, marking a laneway that splits the ancient circle in two. The land has been walked and farmed for generations, yet the ring remains visible in the grass, waiting to be seen.

In pasture, to S of farmyard. Circular area (diam. 36m) defined by earthen bank (H 1.1m) SW->NNE. Stone-faced field fence NNE ->SW following approximate line of bank; also forms outer edge of laneway crossing interior. 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
