What is recorded here

Kilgilky North holds a lost passage fifteen yards west of its ringfort. Bowman recorded the man-made tunnel in 1934, but soil and time have since erased every visible trace. What remains is a hollow absence in the pasture, a underground room forgotten by the land itself.

In pasture, to W of ringfort (CO024-07502-). Bowman (1934, 54) recorded that 'Man-made underground passage, which is now filled in, was found c. 15 yards west of fort'. No visible surface trace. 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
