What is recorded here

Coomlogane, County Cork: A hidden chamber, built with care and buried again. In 1965, a rectangular stone-lined passage emerged, three metres long and low enough to require bending. It faced northeast to southwest, as if aligned to purpose rather than chance. By 1977 it had been backfilled, erasing the entrance and leaving only memory behind. The land kept the shape of human intention, even when the world stopped seeing it.

In possible ringfort (8679). Single rectangular stone-lined chamber (L 3.2m; Wth 1.25m; H 1.5m; long axis NE-SW) discovered in 1965 and backfilled (McCarthy 1977, 200). No visible surface trace. 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
