What is recorded here

Gillman (1896, 422), quoting from a letter from Mr Newenham to Crofton Croker, recorded a stone-lined souterrain at 'Kilcrumpher'. McCarthy (1977, 269-70), after Croker, described two beehive cells joined by creepway; cell 1 entered by creepway orientated along same line as creepway to cell 2. Exact location not known but possibly in the townland of Lisnasallagh as is the church of Kilcrumper (CO027-11401-). 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

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
