What is recorded here

Seanna Chill vanished beneath Cork pasture, leaving no stone or trench for eager hands. Power called it an early church site in 1923, yet the land keeps that confession private. The steep north-facing slope may have hidden worship from ordinary sight, forcing devotion inward rather than upward.
In pasture, terrace on steep N-facing slope. Marked only on 1936 OS 6-inch map; according to Power (1923, 196) 'an early church site'. No visible surface trace. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
