The National Monuments Service's description
Test excavations in 2003 in advance of the construction of a house revealed a shallow deposit (L 10.2m; min. Wth c. 4m) of heat-shattered stones and charcoal-enriched soil in the area of the proposed driveway to the house. The monument is preserved in situ.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
