What is recorded here
Knockafutera rises to approximately 500 metres and is part of the broader Knockmealdown Mountains range, composed mainly of Devonian sandstone. It holds local significance as a waypoint in the ancient pilgrimage route to Croagh Patrick, and its name, meaning "Fáelthra's Knock," may reference early Irish mythology.
