In pasture, on S-facing slope. Arc formed by earthen bank (int. H 1.2m; ext. H 0.45m) WNW->NE exists on NW side of NE-SW townland boundary. Strong local tradition of fort here; no visible surface trace of rest of circle continuing from existing arc. Bank and interior heavily overgrown with bushes; area of interior inaccessible. Recorded by Bowman (1934, 130) as single-ramparted fort (diam. c. 45yd) on Mrs O'Sullivan's land, with boundary fence running through it, 'cutting off about seven-eights [sic], which portion is now levelled'.
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.
