What is recorded here

In rough grazing, on a terrace on a N-facing slope with commanding views N over Berehaven Harbour and the Caha Mountains. A roughly circular, slightly raised area (14m E-W; 13m N-S) is defined by the intermittent remains of a mainly gorse-covered earthen bank (Wth 1.2m; H 0.2m). The level interior is in pasture. This enclosure is known locally as a 'lios'. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
