- GA068-026 Ringfort - cashel
Description
At the head of a small valley surrounded by slightly higher ground from N to SW. Lower ground slopes off to the W and NW. This roughly subcircular cashel (int. dims. c. 40m E-W; c. 35m N-S) is defined by a collapsed rubble spread (int. H 0.3-1m; overall Wth of spread 5.7m; Wth of top of wall c. 1.5m-3.8m; ext H 1.2m). No obvious wall-facing is evident and most of the collapse occurs on the external face. There is no obvious entrance gap. The interior is uneven and overgrown - numerous tree stumps are evident. A raised area demarked by a possible internal dividing wall is evident in the W half of the site - the wall is defined by a grassed-over stony spread. The raised area is c. 1m above the E half of the site and 0.5m above the N sector. The cashel is completely overgrown with bramble, briars, hazel, and ferns. It is within a mature tree plantation and the trees immediately around and within the site have recently been felled.

- GA068-077 Field boundary
Description
On a knoll in woodland. A reported possible enclosure proved on inspection to be a substantial rambling field wall following the contour of the knoll. The wall is constructed of large boulders, now moss covered and heavily overgrown with undergrowth. It is wide and high in places (Wth c. 1.8m; H 0.8) and though it mainly survives in a tumbled state, coursing, as well as some inner and outer facing, is visible intermittently along some stretches. The wall appears to be delimiting a small field/paddock associated with the house and outbuilding shown to the N of it on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map. It is likely to be post-AD 1700 in date. A large heavily overgrown boulder in the SE section of the interior appears to be natural. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 27 March 2019
