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

- GA116-030: Castle - unclassified, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CGA116-030----. In flat pasturelend. Named ‘Site of Castle De Burgh’ on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map but not indicated: the label is to the E of a small group of farm buildings. On the 1920 edition, ‘Castle De Burgh (Site of)’ is shown c. 60m to the NW and is indicated in a small almost square field (c. 29m E-W; c. 28m N-S) by the cross symbol ‘for site of’. No visible surface trace survives and no upstanding remains of the castle were remembered locally. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 29 September 2021
- GA116-031: Designed landscape feature, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CGA116-031----. Within a mature mixed forest plantation of ash and fir trees, in an area of undulating pastureland. Shown on the 1920 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a solitary tree enclosed by a roughly circular wall (diam. c. 15m). On the current OSi mapping, a roughly rectangular area (c. 41m NW-SE; c. 38m NE-SW) in the forest that is clear of trees marks the site. A mature birch tree is growing here and its immediate vicinity is clear of trees. However, due to extremely dense overgrowth of brambles and nettles, no trace of the enclosing wall was noted. The ground is very uneven and rutted it appears to slope to the S. Most likely a landscape feature. GA116-031----_01.jpg View from N Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 25 July 2018

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.
