In ringfort (8473). Broker (1937, 49) noted a 'passage going towards John P. Hickie's, 3 feet square boarded all round with black bog oak. Boards were 3 inches by 6 inches and were 6 feet long. Destroyed by turf cutting in 1895'. No visible surface trace. McCarthy (1977, 369) included this in his list of souterrains but added that it may also refer to 'a water mill or a fulacht fia'.
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.
