• CL017-106 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On the S-facing slope of a low NE-SW ridge in pasture, offering good views out to S. Hachured and named ‘Lisnabooaun’ on both the first (1842) and current (1920) editions of the OS 6-inch map. Named ‘Lisavooan or Cahermore’ by Westropp (1913, 236). Listed as ‘Ringfort’ in the RMP (1996). This subcircular rath (int. diams. 29.2m NE-SW; 24.3m NW-SE; ext. dims. 49.6m NE-SW; 39.5m NW-SE) is defined by a tree-covered inner earthen bank (Wth 2.7-5m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.4-1m) and an external fosse (Wth of base 1.5-3m; Wth of top 4.8-7m; ext. D 0.3-0.7m). Westropp (ibid.) described the enclosing element as a ‘stone-faced earthwork’. A possible second, outer bank (Wth 2.4m; H 0.5-0.7m) is traceable from SSW-SW, but its line is cut by a N-S running road to the W. There are further traces of the outer bank from E-SE, but the area is disturbed by, now grass-covered, quarrying just to the ENE of the rath. There is a gap (Wth 1.5m) in the inner bank at SW but there is no corresponding gap in the outer bank there. In the NE sector of the overgrown and S-sloping interior is a souterrain (CL017-106002-). A grass-covered field bank runs over the outer edge of the fosse from NW-NE and extends NE away from the rath. Another hedge-covered stony field bank girdles the outer edge of the fosse from ESE-SSW and extends SE from the rath. There is an enclosure (CL017-107----) c. 140m to the NE.   Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy and Conn Herriott    Date of upload: 15-10-2025

• CL017-106002 Souterrain
  Description

  Situated in the N sector of a rath (CL017-106----). Labelled ‘Cave’ on the OS 25-inch plan (1893) and later, Cassini edition (1920) of the OS 6-inch map. This two-chambered souterrain is L-shaped in plan with one chamber aligned NW-SE and the second chamber running perpendicularly to its SW. Current access is from the SE end where an overgrown clay-floored ramp (L 1.1m; Wth 1.1m) leads down to the NW to a narrow entrance (Wth 0.5m) to a rectangular chamber (L 9.1m NW-SE; max. Wth 1.8m; max. H 1.65m). The chamber has vertical walls built mainly of small stones (Westropp 1913, 236) with larger stones at the base and with one course of corbels at the top supporting fourteen large roof lintels. A pile of stones lies against the SW sidewall. Towards the N end of the SW sidewall, a small creep allows access to the second chamber which runs perpendicularly to the SW. The creep opening (Wth 0.5m, H 0.65m) at floor level has a large lintel (L 1.25m; H 0.3m) and leads into a narrow creepway (1m NE-SW) with three sidestones on each side. There is an earthen mound at the SW end of the creepway, which is not collapse and may be part of the original design. Above this mound is a narrow trap opening (1.15m NE-SW; 0.75-0.9m NW-SE; max. H 0.6m) the top edges of which are recessed (0.1m), perhaps to take a wooden trapdoor. The trap leads up into the NE end of the second chamber (L 8.2m NE-SW; max. Wth 1.85m; max. H 1.75m; H 0.9m over top of trap). The chamber walls have larger stones at their base and top, where a single course of corbels supports ten roof lintels. A small rectangular opening (H 0.2m; Wth 0.2m) at the N end of the SE wall is an air-vent which curves slightly to the S (traceable L 2m). The vent appears to be unlined but may originally have been lined by timbers. A large triangular stone is set into the base of the chamber wall at its SW end and a large stone lies on the chamber floor.   Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy and Conn Herriott   Date of upload: 15-10-2015

• CL017-107 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a broad NE-SW ridge in pasture. Hachured and named ‘Lisbeg’ on both the first (1842) and Cassini (1920) editions of the OS 6-inch map. This subrectangular enclosure (int. dims. 35m ENE-WSW; 26.4m NNW-SSE) is defined by a bank (Wth 1-2m; H 0.6m) which is overlain by a stone wall (H 0.4-0.6m) along the N and E. There are two entrance gates - one at W and another at N – and there is a large modern hayshed (c. 15m NNW-SSE; 9m ENE-WSW) occupying a significant portion of the interior to W of centre. Although, apparently, not regarded locally as a ‘fort’, the OS map representation strongly argues otherwise and suggests the likelihood that ‘Lisbeg’ rath was subsequently reused as a haggard. There is a rath (CL017-106----) containing a souterrain (CL017-106002-) c. 140m to the SW and a second rath (CL017-108----)  lies c. 110m to the N.   Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy and Conn Herriott    Date of upload: 15-10-2025

• CL017-108 Enclosure
  Description

  On a N-facing slope in pasture, just to the N of a NE-SW ridge. Hachured on both the first (1842) and Cassini (1920) editions of the OS 6-inch map. This poorly preserved circular enclosure (int. diams. 20m N-S; 19m E-W) is defined by the remains a broad (Wth 3-6.5m) but very low bank (H 0.05-0.1m) from N-E-S-SW. From SW-W-N, the original enclosing bank appears to have been reused and hedged as a later field boundary. There is a quarry depression against the inner edge of the enclosing bank at W and the interior is uneven and overgrown with grass and weeds. According to local information, gleaned during an inspection in 1999, the enclosure was levelled c. 1980. ‘Lisbeg’ (CL017-107----) lies c. 110m to the S.   Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy and Conn Herriott    Date of upload: 15-10-2025
