## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- CL011-020: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CCL011-020----. In level pasture c. 250m E of Ballyeighter Lough. Hachured on both the first edition (1842) and later, Cassini edition (1916) of the OS 6-inch map. This subcircular rath (int. diams. 27m WNW-ESE; 23.2m NNE-SSW; ext. diams. 35.8m WNW-ESE; 30m NNE-SSW) is defined by a broad earthen bank which is best preserved W-N (Wth 4-6.4m; int. H 0.5-0.7m; ext. H 0.5m), but reduced elsewhere to a low scarp (H 0.5-0.8m) with a slight bank (int. H 0.2-0.5m; Wth 1.7-2.7m) along its top. There is a livestock gap at NNW and the enclosing bank is covered with fist-sized fieldstones and occasional boulders – the result of field clearance - and is overgrown with trees and bushes. A later field wall runs WNW-ESE over the S edge of the interior and another field wall overlies the enclosing bank NE-SSE.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
