- CO075-017001 Graveyard
Description
On N side of Carrigtohill village, rectangular graveyard (c. 60m N-S; c. 80m E-W) enclosed by stone wall. In centre, partially roofed remains of late medieval parish church of Carrigtohill (CO075-017002-); in NW corner C of I church (CO075-017003-) built in 1905 (Coleman 1908, 8). Oldest burials on S side, earliest inscribed headstone noted dates from 1767, though Power (1918,196) records headstone dated 1723, whilst O Buachalla and Henchion (1965) noted '233 stones, all but a few being at least a century old', the oldest dated 1704; many headstones and fragments of headstones now lie in pile to W of church tower. Memorials to Cotter and Dobson families on W wall of church (see CO075-01702-). Still in use; recent extension to N. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
- CO075-017002 Church
Description
In centre of graveyard (CO075-01701-), remains of nave and chancel of parish church of Carrigtohill, with tower at SW corner. By 1615 nave in repair but chancel ruinous (Brady 1863, vol. 2, 91); chancel still a ruin but nave maintained as C of I church until new church built in NW corner of graveyard in 1905 (Coleman 1908, 8); nave still roofed and used as hall with recent flat-roofed extension on W side. Chancel interior (int. 13.6m E-W; 6m N-S) partially overgrown and used for burial with headstones dating to 1815. N and S walls ivy-clad; surviving portion of E wall inserted inside line of earlier wall. Inserted door ope in S wall; splayed window embrasures, missing lights, in N and S walls. Junction of nave and chancel now blank wall functioning as E gable of hall; according to Power (1918,196) 'chancel-arch was transformed into east window' of C of I church date of this transformation not known but probably took place before church reported 'in good repair' in 1694 (Brady ibid, 92-3). Roofed section of nave (16.5m E-W; int. 8m N-S) extends to E wall of tower but earlier nave extended at least to W wall of tower (a further 4.65m). N wall built on battered lower courses of older wall. Blocked window opes in N and S walls and door opes all of relatively recent appearance. Four-storey rectangular tower (6m N-S; 4.65m E-W) stood attached to W end of S wall of nave. It stands to full height but crenellations gone; bellcote added to top of N wall, bell still in position. Access to interior not gained. Lit by rectangular flat-headed lights; series of slit windows near NW corner suggest spiral stone staircase in this position. Blocked arched opening at ground level in S wall and at 1st floor level in E wall appear later insertions. At ground floor level, on W face of tower, oval plaque erected in 1688 by Sir James Cotter (Coleman 1901-3a, 163-4; see photo Coleman 1908b, facing p.8), nearby recently vandalised aediculated memorial of Dobson family dated 1789 (Coleman 1917-20a, 268-9); both lived at Anngrove House (CO075-051---). Tower appears late medieval in date, as presumably was this larger-than-usual parish church of Carrigtohill, associated with nearby Barryscourt castle (CO075-01801-), seat of the Barry family. Though named 'Abbey' on 1842 OS 6-inch map not listed in Gwynn and Hadcock (1988). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.

- CO075-068 Midden
Description
Discovered during construction of 'new school' in field to S of road, at W end of Carrigtwohill. Excavated by O'Kelly (1955a, 28-32). Midden contained within pit (5m N-S; 2.25m E-W; max D 0.6m) cut into subsoil. Contained mainly oyster shells, few animal bones and fragments of glazed pottery dating to late 13th - early 14th century. Bottom of pit lined with small boulders and flags; further layers of flags found on shells; hearths found at different levels. Various hollows and undulations in surface of subsoil also contain some habitation refuse. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.

- CO076-124 Fulacht fia
Description
Discovered in 2007 during the construction of a sewerage scheme near Carrigtohill. An irregular spread (18m E-W; 12m N-S; D 0.3m) of heat-shattered stones and charcoal-enriched soil was uncovered directly under the topsoil at depths of 0.35-0.7m below the modern surface. The spread was deepest towards the S and spread out more thinly to the N and E. It varied in composition and included compact lenses of stone and mixed clay, charcoal and stone. It had been cut through E-W by a medieval fosse (Wth 1.45m; D 0.4m; min. L 14m) with sloping sides and a rounded base. A circular area (diam. 5.1m) defined by a fosse (Wth 0.42-082m; D 0.2-0.4m) lay under the spread. The fosse was widest on the E side and narrower and was less well defined along the N perimeter. Its fill comprised heat-shattered stone, charcoal and clay. The fosse appeared to surround a central sub-oval pit (3.6m E-W; 1.75m N-S; D 0.4m) filled with a mixture of heat-shattered stones, charcoal and clay. A lignite bracelet fragment was recovered from part of the basal fill. Five pits, two of which were conjoined, were excavated and all had fills of burnt stone. One large pit (8.5m NW-SE; max. 4.2m E-W; D 0.4-0.7m) had six stakes driven into its base and one oak post remained in situ. The stakes (diam. 0.1-0.2m) extended across a length of 1.5m and formed a 'W'-shaped plan. A channel (Wth 1.1m; D 0.25m) with a rounded U-shaped base drained into the E side of the pit and may have carried surface water into it. It extended eastwards for 7.3m. The spread was radiocarbon dated to 917-841 Cal. BC (2749±33) (UBA 8455), the medieval fosse to cal. AD 1033-1152 (942±BP) (UBA 8456) and the circular fosse to cal. BC 891-803 (2679±33) (UBA 8457).
