Recorded monuments

• CO064-014001 Ecclesiastical enclosure
  Description

  In pasture, on E-facing slope. Depicted on 1842 OS 6-inch map as large dotted circle (diam. c. 110m) labelled 'Grave Yd' (CO064-014002-), with rectangular dotted structure in SE quadrant labelled 'site of church'. No visible surface trace. According to Power (1923, 176), 'the large circular surrounding fence was thrown down within the last half century', he gives the site as 'Cill Rossaín (Russan's Church)'. Large circular enclosure suggests possible remains of early monastery. One of two churches (the other CO064-012001-) 'in good repair' in Killaspugmullane parish in 1615 (Brady 1863, vol. 1,153). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994).

• CO064-170 Metalworking site
  Description

  This metalworking site was excavated in 2001 in advance of the construction of the N8 Glanmire-Watergrasshill Bypass and comprised five bowl furnaces and a possible forging pit. The furnaces (diam. 0.35-0.45m; max. D 0.16m), which were all truncated, were filled with charcoal-rich deposits and iron slag inclusions and most of them were clay-lined. Analysis of the metallurgical waste indicated that the furnaces were used to smelt iron blooms from bog ore. Two of the furnaces were radiocarbon dated to between 352-42 cal. BC, placing the metalworking site firmly in the Irish Iron Age. According to the excavator (Sherlock 2005a, 18), metallurgical waste analysis indicated that the features may have represented a single season of metalworking activity and this suggestion is supported by the radiocarbon dates returned. Another metalworking site (CO064-175----) was situated c. 530m to the NE. (Sherlock 2003f, 46; Sherlock 2005a) The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
