- CO064-162 Kiln - corn-drying
Description
This corn-drying kiln was discovered along the route of the N8 Glanmire-Watergrasshill Bypass and was subsequently excavated in 2001. The kiln, which is a keyhole-shaped example, comprised the surviving base of a bowl (1m x 0.8m; D 0.5m), a flue (max. Wth 0.7m) to the S and a hearth. The bowl and the flue were cut into the upslope. The flue was probably stone-lined originally and, as a consequence, may have been slightly narrower. There was evidence to suggest that the hearth area, located 3m to the S of the bowl, was originally stone-lined also. The flue extended 2m beyond the hearth to the S and, according to the excavator (Cotter 2003b, 27), this may have functioned as a trench from which ashes were raked from the hearth. A semicircular stone setting, located 0.2m S of the flue, may have been the foundations of a stone-lined ash-pit. The S half of the flue and the hearth area retained their original fills, with evidence of intense burning and considerable amounts of charcoal, while the fill of the bowl and the N half of the flue had been extensively disturbed. Charcoal from the flue of the kiln yielded radiocarbon dates of between cal. AD 895-925 and cal. AD 935-1033 (NRA). There is a levelled rath (CO064-009----) c. 200m to the NW in the same townland and a recently discovered medieval moated site (CO064-156001-) lies c. 450m to the NW in the neighbouring Ballinvinny South townland.

- CO064-164 Furnace
Description
This furnace was excavated in advance of the construction of the N8 Glanmire-Watergrasshill Bypass in 2001. The small circular furnace (diam. c. 0.34m; min. D 0.07m), which had been truncated by agricultural activity, contained two fills: an upper fill of a soft, black, charcoal-rich material with a moderate amount of slag, and a lower fill which consisted of a beige-grey clayish material which was scorched in places. According to the excavator (Sherlock 2003j, 36), the slag recovered from the feature was found to derive from the processing of bog iron, though the feature cannot be firmly identified as a bowl-shaped smelting furnace. Charcoal samples were radiocarbon dated to 1990±60 BP and therefore assigned to the Iron Age. Other furnaces were excavated at a metalworking site (CO064-175----), c. 900m to the NE. (Sherlock 2003a, 26-7; 2003j) The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
