On top of a Currane Hill. Mahr (1937, 362) records an urn 'found in the centre of three concentric stone circles, rising in height from the inner to the outer' each being covered with 'long flags extending round the uprights of each respective circle'. Covered by cairn (CO109-039002-); site destroyed in 1840. Doody (1986) describes the urn as an 'Enlarged Food Vessel'.
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.
