What is recorded here

In a rath (CO087-039---), adjacent to a sports field. According to local information, an earth-cut souterrain with an opening (Wth 0.88m; H 0.65m) in the SE quadrant of the rath was accessible in the 1960s. It consisted of passages and some possible chambers. Also according to local information, in the early 1990s a part of the sports field collapsed but it was filled in. The rath was inaccessible in 2004 due to overgrowth and the opening to the souterrain was not located. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
