- DU026-060 Enclosure
Description
This enclosure is situated in the northern corner of a field of improved pasture on the S slopes of Carrickgollogan, overlooking the Sugarloaf to the S. An aerial photograph taken in 1966 (CUCAP AOW 73) shows a cropmark sub-circular in shape (diam c. 30m). The enclosure is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout and Padraig Clancy. Revised upload on: 21 April 2018.
- DU026-063 Castle - tower house
Description
The tower house is situated amongst rich pastureland with views onto the Bray coastline and S to Sugarloaf Mountain. The Civil survey (1654-6) describes a 'thatched castle' at Ballyman, which was held since 1641 by Sir Edward Wingfield (Simington 1945, 279). Prior to 1641, the castle had been held by the Talbot family. The castle survived until c. 1835 when it was pulled down to supply materials for Ballyman House (D'Alton 1976, 459 2nd ed; Turner 1983, 87). The rear portion of Ballyman House, apparently, incorporates some earlier features including stone facing and walls (pers. comm. Rob Goodbody). Compiled by: Geraldine Stout and Padraig Clancy. Revised upload on: 21 April 2018.
- DU026-064 Enclosure
Description
The enclosure is formerly located on a S facing slope above the Bray river with extensive views of the coast of Bray and the Sugarloaf Mountain. An aerial photograph taken in 1970 (CUCAP, BDP 24) shows an L-shaped cropmark defined by two contiguous ditches aligned, roughly E-W. The present road forms the S boundary of the site. This is probably part of a much larger enclosure (ext. L 130m; Wth 0.85m). A field boundary on the S side of the road roughly corresponds to the W end of this enclosure. The enclosure is not visible at ground level and the field in which it is located is under tillage. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout and Padraig Clancy. Revised upload on: 21 April 2018.
- DU026-065 Ring-ditch
Description
The ring-ditch is located in an area of tillage that falls S to the Bray River with views of the coastline and the Sugarloaf Mountain. The ring-ditch (diam c. 15m) is visible as a cropmark on an aerial photograph taken in 1970 (CUCAP, BDP 23). It is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout and Padraig Clancy. Revised upload on: 21 April 2018.
- DU026-113 Pit-burial
Description
During road widening operations in 1979 two pit burials were truncated. They were located S of Carrickgollogan hill close to the County Wicklow border. Grave 1 was a burial contained in an inverted cordoned urn and contained the remains of a young adult. Grave 2 was a cordoned urn that contained the remains of two individuals, an adult and a juvenile. Cremated bone from the cordoned urn revealed a calibrated date of 1736-1531 BC at 95% probality. Bone from the undecorated urn had a calibrated date of 1684-1523 at 95% (Cahill, M. & Sikora, M. 2011, 161-167). Compiled by: 11 February 2013 Date of upload: 11 February 2013

Description
St. Kevin's Well lies on the S facing slope of a valley in the townland of Ballyman, parish of Oldconnaught. The well, or spring, rises at the foot of a bank on the N side of the County Brook which divides Dublin from Co. Wicklow. Medieval church ruins (DU028-002002-) lies 60m to the E. Holy well described in 1900 as follows; 'Near the church is a well, called after St. Kevin, and surrounded by trees on which, until lately, the rags hung by pilgrims to its healing waters were to be seen' (Anon. 1900, 187).
