The National Monuments Service's description
In interior of ringfort (CO081-026----). 'There is said to be a tunnel from the interior of the fort which surfaces in a field on the other side of the road (c. 40m to E of ringfort) but it is now blocked off' (Anon 1994, 6). No visible surface trace when ringfort (CO081-026----) was inspected.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
