- CO064-058001 Ringfort - rath
Description
On W-facing slope. Shown on 1842 OS 6-inch map as circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m). Levelled; no visible surface trace. According to local information, stone spread visible after ploughing. Associated with possible souterrain (CO064-058002-). Standing stone (CO064-059---) c. 130m to N. 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. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
- CO064-058002 Souterrain
Description
Power (1917, 22) states 'within "the stone field" was a souterrain, now closed up, which connected with a lios now prostrate' (CO064-058001-). No visible surface trace. 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. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
- CO064-154 Kiln - corn-drying
Description
This corn-drying kiln was discovered in 1999 during topsoil stripping in advance of the construction of the Little Island to Ballincollig gas pipeline. It was situated on the lower slopes of a NNW-SSE ridge. Excavation revealed a complete kiln comprising a lintelled flue (L 1.7m NE-SW; max. Wth 0.8m; max H 0.6m), an open-topped bowl (max. diam. 1.62m), a stoke-hole and a fire-pit. In an unusual development, according to the excavator (Clinton 2000, 23), the flue and bowl were positioned in a P-shaped configuration. The floor level of the flue maintained a relatively even profile. Five lintels remained in situ, though these had been severely damaged by the weight of heavy machinery. The bowl was almost circular in plan with outwardly battered sides, resulting in the diameter at floor level being reduced to between 1.2 and 1.26m. According to Clinton (ibid.), the original height of the bowl measured 0.8m. A loosely set cobbled layer was situated at the base of the bowl. A deliberate arrangement of large rocks had been placed at its junction with the flue. According to Clinton (ibid.), these probably acted as a crude filter that prevented flying embers from entering the bowl. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
