What is recorded here

Killeen Burial Gd (Disused) is a D-shaped burial ground in County Cork, Ireland, measuring about 15m E-W and 10m N-S. It bounded the south side of a footpath and disappeared under growth until no one could inspect it. The place may have marked deaths, journeys or change beside a road people still walked.

Not shown on 1842 OS 6-inch map. Shown on 1904 OS 6-inch map as D-shaped area (c. 15m E-W; c. 10m N-S), defined by broken line, bounding S side of footpath. Area is entirely overgrown making inspection of site impossible. 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
