What is recorded here
Ballyglavin holds a man-made passage beneath its ringfort, remembered locally though no entrance remains visible. The absence does not diminish the claim; it redirects attention to the buried structure and the people who shaped it. Forgetting the marker is not the same as losing the fact.
In ringfort (CO056-002---). Local tradition of tunnel; no visible surface trace.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
