What is recorded here
No visible chamber exists today, but the collapsed ground inside the northern half of the ringfort at Cloonareague suggests a hidden passage beneath the soil. That much is all the evidence offers: a man-made gap, lost or buried, waiting under what looks like ordinary wrecked earth.
In N half ringfort (CO094-105---). Collapsed area may indicate presence of Man-made underground passage.
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.
