The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on W side of stream. Heavily overgrown, roughly circular mound of burnt material (diam. 14m; H 1.4m). Bowman (1934, 557) noted that 'a stone trough, about 4 feet by 11/2 by 1ft. deep was found here many years ago. The mound, however, appears to have been untouched'. Holy well (14002) c. 30m to SSW.
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.
