Broker (1937, 54) recorded single earth-cut chamber '12 feet by 10 feet and 8 feet high' discovered c. 1926 on Tim Connell's land in 'Pairc na Cnamh'. McCarthy (1977, 244) interprets column of 'sledged' stone in one corner as construction pit. Exact location not known but Broker (ibid.) described it as lying between two forts '100 yards and 300 yards off' though not in a direct line between them (possibly 8698 and 8699).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

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.
