In pasture, on an E-W ridge in an area of undulating farmland. According to local tradition, Edward Riggs, a Cromwellian officer, built a house in a field now known as 'Páircín a' Tí Rig' (SMR file). According to local information 'ploughing still reveals a large rectangular reddish patch of broken bricks and tiles' in this field (SMR file). The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
