Recorded monuments

• CO023-179 Enclosure
  Description

  Indicated as small circular enclosure (diam. c. 12m) on 1937 OS 6-inch map. Ring of mature deciduous trees indicate site; according to local information, low bank which surrounded these trees was recently levelled. Appears to be same site as single-ramparted fort (diam. c. 15yds; bank H c. 2ft) recorded by Bowman (1934, 49) in Mr Bolster's land. 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

• CO023-219 Standing stone
  Description

  On a ridge of high ground. This is the original location, as indicated by the landowner, of a standing stone which was moved to a rough quarry area to the SW. The stone (2.2m x 1.5m; H 1.6m) is irregular in plan and section. According to the landowner, a water diviner working in the area in the recent past encountered a 'rectangular chamber' beneath where the stone had originally stood. This stone is most probably that recorded in the 1930s in 'Mr. Bolster's' in Glenlohane townland and described as '3 ft. [0.91m] high by 10 ft [3.05m], by 7 ft. [2.13m]' (Bowman 2000, 28). The dimensions of the stone are atypical for this monument type and its precise nature remains to be elucidated. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
