What is recorded here

No visible passage remains in the northern half of the Lisnagat ringfort, yet local memory claims the ground collapsed while men dug for an electricity pole. The earth may have swallowed a hidden chamber, erasing the very tool that revealed it. What was built beneath that ancient circle has vanished again, leaving only a sudden hole and a warning about how quickly the ground takes back what human hands expose.

In N half ringfort (CO096-001---). According to local information, ground collapsed while digging hole for electricity pole. No visible surface trace. 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. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
