The National Monuments Service's description
In narrow tract of level pasture between E-W ridges. Large, roughly circular area (170m N-S; 160m E-W) defined by earthen bank (H 1.6m). Break in bank to S. Interior under pasture; Fanlobbus church (CO108-02703-) and graveyard (CO108-02702-) occupies SE quadrant, defined by earthen bank. 'Low earthen bank' (Hurley 1980, 59) running N from NW corner of graveyard, dividing the interior in half, has been levelled. Hurley (1980, 59) suggests that field fences to W and N, concentric with enclosing bank, may represent 'an outer enclosure'. Holy well (CO108-026---) c.260m to SW. Site mentioned in early historic sources (Hurley 1980, 59).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
