• CO027-086 Megalithic tomb - wedge tomb
  Description

  In pasture, on top of low gently sloping knoll c. 450m S of Funshion River. One of the largest wedge tombs in the country, it was excavated in 1934 (Leask and Price 1936). The remains comprise a long, subrectangular gallery, aligned WNW-ESE, divided into a W main chamber (L 6.2m, Wth c. 1.7m) and a small E end chamber (L c. 0.9m; Wth 1.2m); the whole is covered by three roofstones. The main chamber is 1.8m H at W and 1.2m at E end. Gallery walls are doubled and flanked on either side by massive outer-walling. Three buttress stones stand at the E end of the gallery. A line of low kerbstones to the S of the gallery, joining buttress stones at the E end, encloses the low remains of a cairn; some remains of a cairn were found to the N of the gallery but no kerb was located. The W end of the monument is very ruined and though the original design is unclear, a portico seems likely. On the floor of the end chamber were found the headless skeleton of a woman accompanied by burnt animal bones and a bone pin; this was probably the primary burial. Higher up were cremated human bones and some coarse pot sherds. Two inhumations, including three skulls, were found in the main chamber, with sherds of coarse pottery. An additional skull appeared to match the female skeleton from the end of the chamber. Evidence for other burials were found in the portico area including a probable cist containing inhumation and sherds of possible food vessel (CO027-169----). Three radiocarbon determinations indicate that the burials could have taken place within the shortest calibrated range of 2202-2138 BC (Brindley and Lanting 1991-92, 21). (de Valera and Ó Nualláin 1982, 2-4, no. 3; Ó Riordáin and Waddell 1993, 94). This is a National Monument in State Guardianship (no. 318).

  Description

  In pasture, overlooking Funshion River to N. Similar style to Manning House (14915) across river to N. Two-storey gable-ended late 17th/early 18th-century rectangular house (14.42m N-S; 6.54m E-W)- only section to survive are both gables and short returns of side walls. Random-rubble limestone construction, some rendering evident. Short returns of front elevation (E) have sides of ground and 1st-floor windows (H c. 2m); front probably originally 5 bays wide. North gable has externally projecting chimney (Wth 2.9m) stack, which begins to gather inwards 2.75m above ground level, and further rises as slim shaft (0.75m x 0.75m). Internal N elevation has central ground and 1st-floor fireplace. Ground and 1st-floor fireplaces in S gable, in shallow internally projecting chimney stack. Ground and 1st-floor marked by lines of joist holes along front and back walls. Grove White (1905-25, vol. 3, 130) was informed locally that it was formerly known as 'Manor House' and was never finished as local farmer, who was removing stones, became ill. Site of Manor mill (15239) to N. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000).

• CO027-129002 Mill - unclassified
  Description

  A 'mill' indicated on Down Survey (1655-6) barony map on N bank of River Funshion in vicinity of Manning House (14915). However, Grove White (1905-25, vol. 3, 130) noted 'remains of a very long weir and old mill race- the old "Manor Mill" as it was called', opposite on S bank of river, just below Manor House (14906). The 1842 OS 6-inch map does not show any mill features in this locality. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.

• CO027-169 Cist
  Description

  Found during excavation (Leask and Price 1936, 77-101) of portico area of wedge tomb (CO027-086---). 'At the western end of the monument ...we found an arrangment of slabs which appeared to form a cist' (ibid. 90). Some unburnt bones and two 'very small pieces of what appeared to be a food vessel' (ibid.) were recovered; 'unclassifiable' according to O'Ríordáin and Wadell (1993, 94). Two apparent slab sockets were noted c. 2m further N, one of which contained 'a fragment of the rim of a decorated pot' (Leask and Price 1936, 90), leading the excavators to speculate that this may have been a second cist.
