What is recorded here

Half a meter high and swallowed by gorse, the oval cairn sits on a sunny slope beside its smaller neighbour sixteen meters away. Both markers have watched the cutaway bog deepen and the old field lines fade for generations. They are small enough to miss and old enough to matter, waiting for someone to kick back the sod and remember what they marked.

In rough hill pasture, in an area of cutaway bog, on a SE-facing slope and within a network of relict field boundaries (CO115-106004-). This oval-shaped cairn (4m NW-SE; 2.9m NE-SW; H 0.55m) is largely obscured by gorse-covered sod, though some stones are exposed along the SE arc. There is another cairn (CO115-106006-) situated 16m to the NE. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
