What is recorded here

Kilcullen South holds a thirty-two metre earthen ring where human hands shaped the soil before memory faded. The remaining bank now serves as a field fence, forcing livestock to trace the same circular boundary set by forgotten people. Inside the pasture, a souterrain descends into darkness, waiting for breath and echo. What the ring excluded, what the hole revealed, and who first drew the line remain lost beneath grass and rain.

In pasture. Roughly circular area (diam. c. 32m) defined by earthen bank NNW->SSW; levelled elsewhere. Remaining bank incorporated into field fence system. Souterain (CO061-015002-) 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
