The National Monuments Service's description
In NW quadrant of ringfort (CO041-08601-). Grove White (1905-25, vol. 3, 332) recorded 'an entrance to a cave partly filled up with loose stones, but it is very easy to remove them'. Depression and opening, outside NW wall of western hut site and apparently leading under it, probably indicates collapsed chamber(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.
