Examined by Windele in 1850 who reported an 'oblong wooden cistern of oak 4feet 8 inches in length, 6 feet 10 inches broad and about 20 inches in depth...a pair of millstones, a wooden shovel, and the shaft of a wheel' (Rynne 1988, 333). He suggests the whole structure may have been destroyed by fire. Site not located.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

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.
