Recorded monuments

• CV034-046008 Ecclesiastical enclosure
  Description

  Located in a fold towards the top of a S-facing slope. The early monastic church and the medieval parish church of Moybologue are centred on a circular graveyard. This is at the S edge of what might be a large oval ecclesiastical enclosure (dims c. 270m E-W; c. 170m N-S), the perimeter of which could be fossilised in the road boundary that arcs past the graveyard E-S-W, including the S edge of the graveyard in its course. This is continued by a field bank curving W-NW which includes within it at this NW edge the motte and bailey (CV034-045----). The perimeter is absent NNW-NE but might follow the line of a field bank NE-E where it would meet the road. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 21 April, 2017 Amended: 19 March 2020

A farmyard abuts the site at W at which point the enclosing bank is identifiable only as a low scarp. A modern roadway curves around the site from WNW-N. Original entrance not recognisable. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
