The National Monuments Service's description
To the N of a castle site (CO007-039001-) is a shallow linear depression running NE-SW which was described in the late 19th century as a 'shallow rectangular ditch faced with stone'. This may be the remains of the 'handsome canal' referred to by Smith (1750, vol. 1, 306).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
