• CL035-123 Children's burial ground
  Description

  On a S-facing slope, in improved pasture, overlooking low-lying and generally level land. Listed as 'Burial ground' in the SMR (1992) and the RMP (1996). Depicted on all OS historic mapping and named ‘Knocknakilla Burial Gd’, ‘Knocknakilla Burial Ground for Children’ and ‘Knocknakilla Children’s Burial Gd.’ on the 1840 edition of the OS 6-inch map, the OS 25-inch map and the 1921 edition of the OS 6-inch map, respectively. A sub-triangular area (12m E-W; 8.5m N-S) defined by a low earthen and stone bank (int. H 0.6m; ext. H 0.15m; Wth at top 0.8m; overall Wth 2.65m) to N and E, where the bank is well formed and best preserved. The bank is reduced to a scarp (Wth 1m; H 0.35m) along the S side. The interior has a steep S-facing slope and is uneven underfoot where there are some stones protruding above the ground surface. Several boulders are located at the base of the bank at the SE corner. One of these stones has a faint cross etched on its surface. According to local information, the last infant was buried here c. 1937.   The following images have been uploaded: CL035-123----_01.jpg From ESE. General view of monument.

• CL035-124 House - 18th/19th century
  Description

  On an elevated area, to the immediate E of a N-S tertiary road. Listed as 'House - 17th century (possible)' in the SMR (1992) and the RMP (1996). A late 18th/early 19th century four-bay, two-storey structure with a slate roof and entrance driveway extending to SSW. Depicted and named ‘Derrymore House’ on all historic OS mapping. This building is described in the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage (www.buildingsofireland.ie) where a date range of 1780-1820 is given. Weir (1999, 101) describes it as ‘17th or 18th century’ although the earliest date given later in his description is 1788, when a Tom Steele is mentioned as being born in the house. There is no reference to any 17th-century date and the architecture of the house is late 18th/early 19th century. There are outbuildings to the immediate NNE, although these are thought by the present owner to be contemporary with the house. In December 2016 the Local Authority added the house to the Record of Protected Structures (RPS No. 82). Note: There is another 'Derrymore House' in Clogher Td., O'Callaghan's Mills (CL036-002----) some 3km to the E. The following image has been uploaded: CL035-124----_01.jpg View of front elevation.
