This is '…what is known as "The Mass Altar"' (Anon. 1994, 6) and comprises a flat slab of rock (c. 3m x 1.2m; T 0.4m) which lies level with the SSE-sloping ground. The upper surface of the slab is level but there is a drop on its S side where it is supported towards either end by two orthostatic blocks. There is a chamber-like area (D 0.6m) dug out from under the slab between the supports.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
