- CO019-021 Fulacht fia
Description
In pasture, to W of marshy ground. Low, irregular mound of burnt material. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
- CO019-166 Fulacht fia
Description
This fulacht fia was excavated in 2004 in advance of the construction of the N8 Mitchelstown relief road. It consisted of a spread (5.5m x 3m; D 0.04m) of heat-shattered stones and charcoal-enriched soil beneath which was a rectangular trough (2m x 1.3m; D 0.02m). Associated features comprised six pits, three post-holes, 15 stake-holes, seven deposits and a possible metalled surface (2.6m x 1.6m) which was found to the E of the trough. (Sutton 2006b, 1-74; 2007b, 70) The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
- CO019-167 Kiln - corn-drying
Description
This corn-drying kiln (4.72m x 1.49m; D 0.5m) was excavated in 2004 in advance of the construction of the N8 Mitchelstown relief road. The kiln lay beneath a spread of burnt material probably raked out from the kiln. It was keyhole-shaped in plan with a shallow circular pit-cut located at the entrance to the flue. The sides of the bowl and the flue were lined with three to four courses of random rubble limestone. A radiocarbon date of cal. AD 1310-1434 (UB-6833) was obtained for the kiln. The kiln was located in a roughly rectangular paddock (25m N-S; 15-30m E-W) defined by a fosse (Wth 1.6m; D 1.1m) and with an entrance (Wth 5m) in its S side. The excavator (Sutton 2006b, 13) concluded that this paddock and the kiln were likely to be contemporaneous. (Sutton 2006b; 2007b, 70) The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
- CO019-168 Fulacht fia
Description
This fulacht fia was excavated in 2004 in advance of the construction of the N8 Mitchelstown relief road. It consisted of a low mound (19.2m x 15.4m; H c. 0.2m) of heat-shattered stones and charcoal-enriched soil. Beneath the N end of the mound a rectangular trough (2.02m x 1.45m; D 0.65m) was found. Eight stake-holes found in the corners of the trough suggest that it was timber-lined originally. A pit (4.15m x 1.45m; D 0.57m) surrounded by 25 stake-holes and three post-holes was found to the S of the trough. It contained no burnt stones suggesting that it had been infilled prior to the build up of the mound. The NW end of the pit was truncated by a second pit (1.9m x 1.55m; D 0.35m). This fulacht fia was radiocarbon-dated to the early Bronze Age (cal. BC 2122-1828 (UB-6718)). A second fulacht fia (CO019-169----) which lay 5m to the NW was also excavated. (Sutton 2006c, 1-48; 2007d, 69) The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
- CO019-169 Fulacht fia
Description
This fulacht fia was excavated in 2004 in advance of the construction of the N8 Mitchelstown relief road. It consisted of a low mound (15.4m x 14m; H c. 0.2m) of heat-shattered stones and charcoal-enriched soil. Beneath the E side of the mound was a trough (2.75m x 2m; D 0.8m). Six stake-holes were found along the inner edge of the trough and a further four stake-holes were spread along its W perimeter. A rectangular pit (1.3m x 1.1m; D 0.3m) containing five stake-holes was found c. 1.9m SW of the trough. Another rectangular pit (2.6m x 1.1m; D 0.35m) which truncated a post-hole was found 5.5m W of the trough. A further three small pits, three post-holes and five stake-holes were found in an arc between and to the N of this pit and the trough. The NE edge of the mound was truncated by a large cut (5.5m x 3m; min. D 1.4m) which extended beyond the limit of the excavation. The precise nature of this feature is not known and it is possibly associated with modern drainage works. The fulacht fia was radiocarbon-dated to the Early Bronze Age (cal. BC 2023-1773 (UB-67448)). A second fulacht fia (CO019-168----) which lay 5m to the SE was also excavated. (Sutton 2006c, 1-48; 2007d, 69) The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.

Description
Archaeological works, undertaken in 2004 in advance of the construction of the N8 Mitchelstown relief road, revealed almost 100 pits, post-holes and stake-holes. However, no discernible pattern was evident in their arrangements. One of the pits (CO019-172001-) exhibited signs of in situ burning. Two sherds of prehistoric pottery were discovered in an extremely shallow feature to the S.

Description
Archaeological works, undertaken in 2004 in advance of the construction of the N8 Mitchelstown relief road, revealed three pits, including one burnt pit with associated stake-holes (CO019-173001-) and an isolated stake-hole. One pit (4.3m x 3.64m; D 2.05m) lay c. 1.5 m to the SW of the burnt pit and had been recut. The other pit (0.64m x 0.34m; D 0.12m) was irregular in plan and lay a further c. 4m to the NW. An isolated stake-hole (0.31m x 0.39m; D 0.31m) lay c. 3m S of the latter pit. (Sutton 2006e; 2007d, 69-70) The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.

Description
Archaeological works, undertaken in 2004 in advance of the construction of the N8 Mitchelstown relief road, revealed a burnt pit with associated stake-holes as well as two other pits and an isolated stake-hole (CO019-173----). The burnt pit (6.25m x 3.25m; D 2.18m) had charcoal-enriched basal fills and showed signs of in situ burning. Two groups of stake-holes cut its upper N and S sides. The group on the S side of the pit, comprised eleven stake-holes (diam. 0.02-0.06m; D 0.06-0.1m). That on the N side consisted of six stake-holes (diam. 0.06-0.12m; D 0.06-0.2m) that were more widely spaced.
