What is recorded here
Mnemo records an empty promontory fort in County Cork, Ireland. The coastal defences still stand although human memory has abandoned them. Darkness owns the vacant stones, waiting for somebody brave enough to witness what the region forgot.
The Archaeological Survey of Ireland (ASI) is in the process of providing information on all monuments on The Historic Environment Viewer (HEV). Currently the information for this record has not been uploaded.
