Along valley bottom of small stream flowing S to N. Two oak planks (L 1.6m; 0.3m x 0.3m; L 1.7m; c. 0.4m x c. 0.3m) and other small fragments of same dredged when remains of 19th century roadway were being removed from bed of valley. The planks appear to be remains of togher or wooden trackway following same line as later road. When stream dredged, section of trackway evident, crossing line of stream. Timbers recovered but insufficient rings for dendrochronology date. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.
