What is recorded here

Magic and myth are not the same. The chamber is a visible chamber, built to be seen and judged. The claimant must identify the owner, the time and the purpose before deciding whether the chamber is a toy or a trap.

In pasture, on SE-facing slope. Raised circular area (33m N-S; 32m E-W) defined by low earthen bank (int. H 0.7m) SE->SSW, with external fosse and outer bank (H 1.5m). Fosse dry and heavily overgrown. Outer bank stone-faced externally. Interior slopes down to SE towards gap (Wth c. 6.8m) in inner bank; no corresponding break in outer bank. According to local information, inner bank originally survived all round but was worn down due to ploughing of interior. Possible Man-made underground passage (9040) in interior. 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
