No designated site (Special Area of Conservation, Special Protection Area, Natural Heritage Area or proposed one) touches the townland of Ballymun.

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

- DU014-119: Burnt mound, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CDU014-119----. This monument was subject to geophysical survey (Licence no. 08R117) and test excavation (Licence no. 09E0479) as part of the proposed Metro North development. An oval-shaped (5m x 7.5m N-S) deposit of dark-black sandy silt with frequent inclusions of heat-shattered burnt stones was identified. A possible ditch or field boundary (1.85m wide) was identified to the W of the burnt spread and a possible slot-trench (0.2m wide) was identified 1m to the E. It measured 0.2m in width and was filled by black silty charcoal-stained clay (Hession 2009, 20). Compiled by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 6 February 2015

Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12).

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

---

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.
