• CO084-084 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on gentle NE-facing slope. Circular area (diam. c. 80m) enclosed by three banks with external fosse; rough grazing in interior, defences covered by trees. Identified as Ráth Raithleann, seat of rulers of Uí Eachach, branch of the Eoghanacht; excavated in 1930s by Seán P. Ó Ríordáin (1942, 77-150). According to excavator 'the most interesting part of the site was the entrance'; a series of postholes for wooden upright showed it was guarded by four, and possibly five, strong gates, one inside the other. A number of trenches were opened in the interior and, though numerous postholes were found, 'in no case was it possible to recover the plan of the houses which these post-holes represented'. However, a 'black habitation layer' was found which produced many finds. These included sixty bronze objects, a considerable amount of iron implements, clay moulds and crucibles, ten glass beads, three pieces of millefiori glass, a clay lamp, and imported pottery. The pottery was mostly sherds of amphorae ('A' wear) and fine red bowls ('B' wear) from the Mediterranean, with some of 'Gaulish' ('E' wear) origin. According to Thomas (1959, 104) the Garrances assemblage of imported pottery was 'nearer to 500 AD than 600 AD' in date.This accords with the excavators conclusions that 'the cumulative evidence of the finds points to 500 AD as the central date for the period of occupation'. The site is currently being excavated by Mary O'Donnell, UCC. See Excavations 1990, 16 and Excavations 1991, 6.

• CO096-008004 Cross
  Description

  Located 15m to the south-east of Saint Martin’s church (CO096-008001-), towards the centre of the surrounding graveyard (CO096-008002-). This is a stone cross, of Latin form, which is carved from a single block of sandstone and measures 0.67m high, 0.28m wide and 0.1m thick. The arms of the cross are short, the left is badly damaged. The shaft, which is of rectangular cross section, splays slightly towards the base. The top terminal of the cross also splays outwards, but to a much greater degree. The western face of the cross is plain. On the eastern face, at the centre of the cross head, is a motif formed of two large concentric circles in raised relief. Overall, the quality of the cross indicates that it was carved by a skilled craftsman. Around the twelfth century new forms of stone grave markers began to be introduced (Higgins 1987, vol. 1, v). Small Latin stone crosses, of this type, continued to be used up until the nineteenth century. These crosses exist in a variety of locations, serving different functions. The association of a stone cross with an early medieval site and which exhibit ‘parallels in features and shapes … with other decorated cruciform shaped stones’ of the early medieval period, can help establish a date for the monument (ibid., 71). An earlier church (CO096-008003-) once stood in the eastern section of the graveyard, it is recorded as a rectangular structure on the OS 6-inch map of 1842 and is marked as ‘site of Chapel’ The cross is located near the site of this church. In the graveyard is a font (CO096-008005-) that is also believed to be associated with the early church. John Sheehan, having seen the cross, believes that it dates to the early medieval period (2019 pers. comms.).

• CO096-008005 Font
  Description

  10m from the south wall of St. Martin’s church (CO096-008001-) close to the surrounding graveyard (CO096-008002-) boundary fence. The stone font which has irregular octangular sides measures 0.75m long, its width varies between 0.38m and 0.48m. The height of the font is 0.18m. A bowl shaped recess is carved into the top surface of the font, it measures 0.3m in diameter and .09m deep. The font was first identified by Seán P. Ó’Ríordáin in the early 1930’s as he carried out his survey of Kinalmeaky barony. Ó’Ríordáin records that the font showed signs that suggested it may recently have been dug up, probably ‘during the opening of a new grave’ (Ó’Ríordáin 1931). It is possible that the font was associated with the early church (CO096-008003-). In the 1990s the font was placed on a low concrete plinth, 0.06m high, on the southern side of the extant church (Crowley 1997, 43). A plaque which was placed beside the font reads ‘According to tradition this is a font from the ancient church Teampall Mairtin which was in ruins in 1615’. Reported by David Herriott.
