What is recorded here
Knuttery holds a man-made underground passage inside a ringfort, yet no surface trace remains for anyone to point at. Coleman called it an irregular hollow in 1947, capturing the kind of place that resists easy description. The earth may have swallowed the entrance, or the passage may never have wanted to be seen.
In S half of ringfort (CO042-06101-). Recorded by Coleman (1947, 72), under Knuttery townland, as an 'irregular hollow' in S half of interior of ringfort. No visible surface trace.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
