This is the first of four volumes produced by the Cork Archaeological Survey, it concentrates on the sites of West Cork. The survey was established in 1982 as part of a comprehensive programme for the protection of archaeological remains. Its aim was to achieve extensive coverage, in as short a period as possible, but not an intensive examination of each individual monument. It is hoped that they will help to foster a greater appreciation of archaeological heritage and assist in its protection.
