What is recorded here

Indicated is a broken stone ring on a south-facing Cork slope, its boulders still standing one metre high beside a farmhouse garden. The gap faces northwest, perhaps inviting people in or perhaps marking the place where the wall failed. A house appeared above the hole later, turning an ancient boundary into a domestic shadow.

On S-facing slope, to SE of farmhouse and garden. Circular area (18m N-S; 17m E-W) defined by stone bank (H 1.1m) W->S, composed of boulders and large stones. Gap in bank to NW (Wth 6m). 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
