What is recorded here

Indicated is a stone-faced ringfort in Mid Cork, its saucer interior choked with coniferous trees and marked by low western cairns. The south rim rises slightly to balance the sloping ground, suggesting human hands shaped the circle before forgetting its name.

In pasture, on S-facing slope. Circular raised area (44.8m N-S; 42.8m E-W) defined by stone-faced scarp (H 1.45m). Saucer-shaped interior planted with coniferous trees; raised on S side to compensate for hillslope; low cairns of stones W of centre. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
