On inside of S wall springings of wicker centered vault (axis E-W) just above level of rubble. Single flat-headed light visible on S face below level of mound. To E of mound overgrown remains of walled enclosure (c. 6m N-S) which may have abutted E side of tower; 7.5m to S traces of walling running c. 4m N-S. A castle of the O Driscoll clan (O Murchadha 1985, 178) which collapsed c. 1870 (Coleman 1926, 47). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork.

• CO150-079001 Cupmarked stone
  Description

  In a rough pasture area on the N side of a seawater pool, on the SW side of Castle Island in Lough Hyne. A single cupmark (diam. 0.09m; D 0.03m) is visible on the upper surface of outcropping rock. A megalithic structure (CO150-079002-) is c. 20m to the W and a possible earthwork (CO150-079003-) is c. 30m to the SW. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009

• CO150-079002 Metalworking site
  Description

  In rough pasture, just above the high water line on the NW-facing shore of Castle Island in Lough Hyne. A rectangular structure (L 4m NE-SW; Wth 0.77m) comprised of contiguous stone slabs (H up to 0.35m; average H 0.15m). The NE end is expanded in a bulbous fashion (Wth 0.95m) and the slabs lean slightly outwards. The SW end is open and at least one slab has fallen. Two separate larger rectangular slabs lie in the interior: one in a NE-SW direction, the other further to NE lies in a NW-SE direction. The remains are possibly that of a hearth and flue with the capstones removed. A similar structure, which was interpreted as an iron smelting site, was found during the excavation of a hut site at Glannafeen (CO150-047002-) (Ó Cuileanáin 1955, 94-9) c. 650m to the S. High tides are encroaching on the structure and erosion is taking place, especially at the NE end. A cupmarked stone (CO150-079001-) and a possible earthwork (CO150-079003-) lie c. 20m to E and S, respectively. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009

  Description

H up to 0.3m) at NW, NE and SE. A prostrate stone, which may be a glacial erratic, lies on the ground c. 30m to the SE. There is a megalithic structure (CO150-079002-) c. 20m to the N and a cupmarked stone (CO150-079001-) c. 30m to the NE. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
