Recorded monuments

• CO080-107 Field boundary
  Description

  This monument was reported to the Archaeological Survey of Ireland by Tony Miller on 4 September 2013. He describes it as follows: "A section of collapsed relict field boundary within an area of bog and rough grazing on a south facing hillside. It is not far from the summit of Conigar and to the east of Lough Narman. The field boundary is c. 30m in length, runs northwest-southeast and is c. 1.5m in width and up too 0.4m in height. It is well made with a double line of large rocks. It is sited at the top of an area of rough grazing before the terrain becomes very broken and craggy."

• CO092-085 Enclosure
  Description

  This monument was brought to the attention of the Archaeological Survey of ireland by Tony Miller on 4 September 2013. He describes it as follows: "A rectangular enclosure/ dwelling, on a steep south facing slope to the east of the Lackavane river. In an area of rough mountain grazing this hut site has been built around a large boulder along its western side. It is orientated north-south and has internal measurements of c. 6.7m by c. 3.4m with a maximum wall height of c. 1.4m. The walls are roughly built of field stones but with some large slabs laid upright against the inside of the southern wall. There are entrances, both c. 0.7m in width, in the northwest and southeast corners. The entrance to the northwest has a large slab laid down in the threshold and has a ridge of bedrock next to it. The western wall is almost totally made up of the boulder which rises to height of c.3m. It could have been a dwelling but is more likely to have been an enclosre for animals, especially with the sloping interior." Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 16 September 2013
