- DU025-001001: Megalithic tomb - passage tomb, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CDU025-001001-. This passage tomb and its adjacent companion (DU025-001002-) are located on the crest of Montpellier Hill, just SE of a ruinous hunting lodge called the Hell Fire Club (DU025-001003-). The monument enjoys panoramic views N and E with those to the S and W somewhat restricted by forestry. These passage tombs are part of a cluster of passage tombs situated largely along the N and W perimeter slopes of the Dublin and Wicklow mountains. The monument appears as a hollowed-out mound (dims. 18.8 N-S; 26m E-W; H 1.5m) enclosed by a shallow ditch with an external counterscarp bank running from E-W. It may have been re-configured into a ring-barrow at some time in prehistory. That portion of the monument at the NE adjacent to the Hell Fire Club is clearly robbed-out and in this quadrant the mound is flattened. There were kerbstones, not apparent today, visible along the perimeter in the SE which were recorded first from the diaries of Austin Cooper, an 18th century antiquarian who visited the monument in 1779 (Herity 1974, 257; Price 1942, 66 Healy 1975, 1-19). Cooper writes “"On The Top of the Hill of Montpelier stands a house built by the late Mr. Connolly, it is all arched and is now entirely out of Repair. Upon the Top of this Hill formerly stood a Kaim, which was removed to make room for the house... behind the house are still the Remains of the Kaim, the Limits of it, were composed of large Stones set Edgeways, which made a sort of a Wall or Boundary of abt. 18 Inches high & withinside those, were the small stones heaped up. It is 34 yards Diameter or 102 in Circumfe. In the very Centre, is a large Stone 9 feet long, 6 feet broad & abt. 3 feet thick, not raised upon large Stones but lying low, with the Stones cleared away from about it. There are several other large Stones lying upon the Heap. About 60 yards S.W. of this Stands a single Stone, of abt. 5 feet high, but whether. it is a part of this Druidical Remains, or only put up there for the Cattle to scratch themselves (the Use it is now made of) I shall not positively say" (Price, 1942). In 2016 a research excavation (16E0497) funded by Dublin South County Council took place with the purpose of assessing whether any archaeological features were present and what the nature of those deposits were. (Jackman 2016, 1-33). Two trenches were excavated ; Trench 1 15m x 2m orientated N-S running from the centre of the monument towards the external edge and Trench 2 10m x 2m orientated E-W across the centre of the northern quadrant in the most disturbed part of the monument. Original cairn material was identified relating to the tomb construction by excavation. The enclosing fosse which follows the edge of the monument was identified as a late robber trench probably associated with the quarrying of kerbstones as building material for the construction of the nearby Old Military Road at the beginning of the 19th century. Within layers of disturbed deposits were some significant finds including a polished stone axehead and a decorated stone. Further analysis will determine whether this stone belongs with the corpus of megalithic art. Compiled by: Margaret Keane Revised upload on: 7 July 2018

Situated on the crest of Montpellier Hill the house enjoys panoramic views N and E with those to the S and W somewhat restricted by forestry. The building popularly known as the 'Hell fire Club' was built by the Right Hon. William Connolly, speaker of the Irish House of Commonsc.1729. It was situated in the centre of an extensive deerpark. A detached five-bay single-storey-over-basement former hunting lodge on hill summit, built c.1740, burnt soon after, with vaulted stone roof repair, now derelict. Projecting porch / gallery with arched window to front, between plain openings in main elevation. Two wings with small rooms and sloping stone roofs, and projecting shelter walls. Projecting wing to rear with small semi-circular window. Internal rooms with fireplaces, arched doorways and niches, and connecting gallery. Healy noted that the house consisted of two large rooms and a hall on the upper floor. There was a small loft over the parlour and hall. There was a small loft over the parlour and hall.

Situated on the W facing slope of Mountpeliar. An aerial photograph taken in 1963 (CUCAP, AIG 75) shows traces of a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 60m) defined by a low earthen bank with a field boundary cut across the eastern half of the site.

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.
