- DG075-002: Structure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CDG075-002----. First shown on the 1848-50 edition of the OS 6-inch map, this is a shelter-like feature built against the steep face of a rocky knoll. An upright slab 1.5m E of and parallel to the base of the knoll is 2m long, 0.4m thick and 1.6m high. This supports the eastern edge of a sloping roof-slab, 2.3m by 1.6m, the western edge of which rests on a ledge at a height of c. 0.6m on the rock face. Closeby to the S there is another slab on the ground. It is clear from OS documents that this structure was in its present state in the middle of the 19th century. An entry in an OS Revision Name Book (1848-50) records a claim that it was a place of worship 'some hundreds of years ago'.

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.
