Description

The Garryduff Bird + 20″ curb chain.

The Garryduff gold bird has a special connection with Cork Public Museum. Not only was it unearthed in the same year as the Museum’s opening but also the excavation was headed by their first curator, M.J. O’Kelly. During the summers of 1945 and 1947, O’Kelly excavated two ringforts on a small hill located between Fermoy and Midelton. The bird, found at Garryduff I, is the only gold find from a dig that yielded a significant number of objects of varied typology.  #Daniel Breen
