What is recorded here

Killasseragh holds a thirty-three-metre earthen ring on a gentle north-facing slope, its ancient bank now hidden beneath a curving stone fence and grazing pasture. The site has surrendered most of its shape to time and farm work, leaving only low undulations and a level interior for imagination to occupy. It is the kind of place where human hands built a boundary, forgot it, and nature reclaimed the truth.

In pasture on gentle N-facing slope forming corner of field. Circular area (33m N-S; 33m E-W) defined by field fence (int. H 1.4m; ext. H 2.6m) curving SW->E, probably incorporating remains of bank; in poor condition, topped by stone fence in parts. Line of bank visible as low undulations E->SW. Interior level. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
