What is recorded here

On the N side of an E-W field boundary which crosses the interior of a levelled rath (CO039-091----). According to local information, an opening covered with slabs gave access to a lintelled passage (L c. 6m) which sloped down to the N and then curved back to the S. This passage led into a rectangular stone-built chamber (c. 1.2m E-W; c. 1.2m N-S), roofed with lintels. There are no visible remains of this souterrain at ground level. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

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