  In level tillage, no visible surface trace.

Michael was...now unknown'. See Excavations 2001, 35 (see Notes) 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.
