Recorded monuments

• KD029-030 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  At the higher, S-end, of a narrow N-S esker, which has been partially quarried away. immediately N of the monument. A fairly well-preserved, raised, circular area (int diams. 22m N-S; 21m E-W; ext. diams. 55.7m N-S; 53.4m E-W) is defined by an inner earthen bank (int. H 0.6-1.3m; Wth across top 1.3-2.3m; ext H 2.7-3.9m) with an entrance gap (Wth 1.9m) at SSE, a narrow dry fosse (Wth at base 1.9-2.2m; D 0.5-1m) and by a second, low outer bank (int H 0.5-1m; Wth across top 1.2-1.7m; ext H0.4-1.9m). A raised rectangular, platform (12m N-S; 9.2m E-W) defined by a low scarp (H0.5m) occupies the internal NW quadrant, and a low triangular (max. 7.5m E-W; 6.5m N-S) projects S from the outer face of the outer bank at SSW. If viewed from the W, the monument has a high, motte-like profile, and its steep profiles and absence of a causeway crossing the fosse results in a well-defended site.

• KD029-031 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  At the W-foot of a long moderately steep slope in wet rushy pasture, with a small stream flowing E immediately to the S of the monument. A fairly poorly preserved oval area (int. diams. 23m N-S; 18m E-W; ext diams. 50m N-S; 42m E-W) is defined by a low inner earthen bank (int. H 0.2-0.8m; Wth across top 0.9-1.5m; ext H 2-2.9m), and by a flat-bottomed fosse (Wth 2.1m: D 0.8m) and a second, outer bank (int H 0.8m; Wth across top 1.8m; ext H 1.6m) ENE-SE. From SE-W-N-ENE the outer bank has been levelled into the fosse. The original entrance lies at ESE with corresponding gaps in the inner (Wth 1.3m) and outer (Wth 2.7m) banks and a causeway (Wth 4.2m; L 6.1m) across the intervening fosse. Internally, the N-half of the monument is slightly higher (H 0.6m) than the S-half. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 16 September 2013
