In pasture on N-facing slope, overlooking Hollybrook demesne. Hachured as multi-vallate circular enclosure on OS 6-inch map (1842). Noted by Donovan (1876, 41) who described it as "in perfect preservation; the concentric high earthen ramparts, with the deep intervening fosse, are on an extensive scale". Levelled c. 1950; slightly raised area to N of field fence only visible trace.
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.
