What is recorded here

On top of a low cliff on N shore of Clonakilty estuary. The site appears to have been completely removed by Cork County Council during road widening. The graveyard contained a ruined church (CO135-053002-). Probably an early ecclesiastical site. (Hurley 1980, 60). 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. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
