The National Monuments Service's description
In reclaimed pasture. In 1997 a U-shaped fulacht fia (18m E-W; 13m N-S) was recorded here in the E end of a field known as 'the bog' (SMR file). A low mound was noted here in 2002 but it could not be positively identified as a fulacht fia.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
