The National Monuments Service's description
An irregular spread (17m x 8m; D 0.05m) of heat-shattered stones and charcoal-enriched soil was discovered during archaeological testing in advance of the construction of the N8 Rathcormac-Fermoy Bypass and was excavated in 2003. It was c. 60m W of the Shanowennadrimina Stream. The spread partially overlay a subrectangular unlined trough (2.6m N-S; 1.06m E-W; D 0.5m). Three pits, one post-hole and four stake-holes were also recorded in the vicinity of the trough. (O'Connell 2006f, 56)
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
