What is recorded here

Kill is a buried memory in County Cork, marked only by a low stone bank and fences around overgrown grass. It holds no names, no crosses, no visible graves, but it still belongs to the dead. The living may have forgotten the shape of the place, yet the earth remembers every body it took.

In pasture on S-facing slope. Irregular area (20m N-S; 18m E-W) enclosed by field fences E->S; stone built bank (int. H 0.8m) W->N. No grave markers noted; heavily overgrown. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
