What is recorded here

In pasture, on a SW-facing slope. A recent collapse of earth resulted in a roughly circular opening (0.45m NNE-SSW; 0.43m ESE-WNW) which gives access to a roughly oval earth-cut chamber (0.86m x 0.74m; min. D 0.9m). A creepway (L c. 0.33m; min. Wth 0.2m) leads to the SSW from the chamber but it was inaccessible due to an accumulation of spoil from the collapse. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
