• CO149-032 Promontory fort - coastal
  Description

  On a roughly triangular headland (c. 120m E-W) that projects into the sea on the W side of Sherkin Island. The neck (28m N-S) of the headland is defended by three earthen banks. The outer bank (Wth 1.7m; ext. H 0.35m; int. H 0.7m) is separated from the middle bank (Wth 1.6m; ext. H 0.35m; int. H 0.55m) by a fosse (Wth 4m). The remains of a shorter inner bank (L 4m; Wth 1.8m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 0.5m) at the N end of the neck are separated from the middle bank by another fosse (Wth 1m). The ends of the middle and inner banks are being eroded by the sea. The W half of the interior is rocky and the E half is in rough pasture. Traces of lazy-beds, orientated N-S, are visible on the landward side immediately to the E. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.
