What is recorded here

Indicated is a small circular enclosure in County Cork, Ireland, marked on a 1937 map and identified by a ring of mature deciduous trees. Bowman recorded a single-ramparted fort at the same site in Mr Bolster's land, but the low bank has since been levelled. The trees remain as a quiet boundary, marking a place whose earth shape has been erased but whose position is still known.

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. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
