Description
In pasture. Excavated in 1982-3 (Lehane 1988, 85-6, site 1) in advance of drainage works. Prior to excavation, site identified as a horseshoe-shaped mound of burnt material (ibid., 83). Removal of turf revealed roughly circular spread of burnt material (c. 11m N-S; c. 11.7m E-W) with slight central depression. Excavation confined to area of depression and exposed rectangular, plank-built trough (1.85m N-S; 0.7m E-W); portion of floor and parts of side planks well preserved. Trough set in pit (c. 2.3m N-S; c. 1.3m E-W) which was partially backfilled to hold trough in position. Base of trough filled to depth of c. 0.36m by fire-shattered stones in a blue-black clay loam matrix, overlain with c. 0.44m of mound material, sealed by layer of cemented buff clay (D c. 0.24m) over which was a further thin spread of mound material. A number of stake-holes cut into subsoil in NW edge of pit were tentatively identified as 'traces of racks for hanging meat' (ibid., 85). Samples of timber from one of the side planks of the trough was radiocarbon dated to 3850±30BP (GrN-11803) (ibid., 86). Mound of burnt material still visible when site inspected in 1986.

Description
In pasture. Excavated in 1982-3 (Lehane 1988, 85-6, site 2) in advance of drainage works. Prior to excavation, site identified as irregular mound of burnt material. Removal of turf revealed irregular spread of burnt material (8.5m x 8.5m); only SE quadrant was excavated. Excavation revealed that trough consisted of rectangular pit (c. 1.5m x c. 2m) dug into subsoil at E end of mound; fragments of side timbers embedded in sides of pit; no floor timbers remained. A number of stake-holes excavated at NW end of trough were possibly remains of racks for hanging meat. Sample of side timbers was radiocarbon dated to 2705± 70 BP (UB 2626) (ibid., 87). One of a group of 10 fulachta fiadh (10256; 10258; 10259; 10260; 10261; 10262; 10729; 10264; 10265). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.

- CO027-058004 Excavation - miscellaneous
Description
In driest part of otherwise boggy pasture, c. 7m N of fulacht fiadh (10256). Archaeologically excavated in 1982-3 (Lehane 1988, 90-91, site 3) in advance of drainage works; prior to excavation, rectangular mound (37.5m N-S; 23.5m E-W) noted. Excavation revealed rectangular structure (14.4m x 7.5m) consisting mainly of comminuted red-glazed hand-made bricks with some intact bricks. Underneath were deposits of homogenous burnt material (D c. 0.1m) and leached soil (D c. 0.22m). Strips of compacted yellow clay (L c. 5m; Wth c. 0.7m) delimited brick deposits along NE and SW sides. A number of stake-holes were noted along the SE and NW sides and a slot extended outwards at an angle from the SE side. The exact nature and function of the site remain unclear but the excavator suggests that it may have been a post-medieval brick manufacturing site or the remains of a collapsed, possibly burnt down, brick-built structure (ibid.). Mound still visible. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000).
