What is recorded here

On the summit of a hill in undulating terrain. Monument not marked on either the 1st (1840) ed. or 1904-5 ed. OS 6-inch map. Ringfort identified as a result of the discovery of a souterrain (TS082-045002-) during the construction of the Cork-Dublin gas pipeline. Aerial photographs revealed the slight trace of a large circular enclosure (diam. c. 50m) surrounding the souterrain(Hurley 1987, 65). Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 04 February 2014
