What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort on a south-east facing slope in County Cork, Ireland. The land has been levelled into a silage pit, though faint undulations still mark the circular enclosure. Across the road, a graveyard and Church of Ireland church stand near the buried passage, waiting for someone to remember the shape beneath the soil.

Associated with Man-made underground passage (CO065-00702-). Graveyard (CO065-00801-) and Church of Ireland church (CO065-00802-) across road to S.
