The Down Survey (1655-6) Barony map shows a cluster of three houses in Marino townland. These probably represent the mid-17th century settlement of the area and may indicate a fishing village. A stone-built milking parlour, of late 17th-century appearance and featuring a Dutch gable, was recorded in Marino Farm (CO075-074----) in 1992. However, this, along with the other buildings on the farm, had been demolished by 2001.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 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.
