The National Monuments Service's description
Discovered during construction of Bruff-Mallow gas pipeline (Gowen 1988, 125-6). Extensive horseshoe-shaped spread of burnt material (L 20m), which extended 15m into pipeline corridor from fence line, was revealed during topsoil removal (pers. comm. M. Gowen). Cutting revealed burnt material to a depth of just 0.3m (ibid.). Gowen noted that 'the configuration of the ground outside the corridor suggested that the trough site probably lay some distance beyond the southern limit of the pipeline corridor' (ibid.). Circular house site and hearth site (11999, 13848) c. 50m to S.
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.
