- KD002-011 Mound
Description
Near the top of a gentle W-facing pasture slope in the grounds of Ballindoolin House. An overgrown, low, circular, flat-topped, earthen mound (diam. 18m; H 1.6m) is retained by a low dry-stone wall, and outer fosse (Wth 4-6m; D 0.1-0.2m) S-W.

- KD002-012 Road - unclassified togher
Description
In Lucy's Wood on the W-edge, and apparently crossing the narrowest part of a small bog. A portion of wooden track way was uncovered during turf-cutting in the 1960's and comprised large oak planks, taken from split tree trunks, and laid side-by-side, two planks wide. Upright stakes along each side stood to 'waist height' and had forked tops to carry handrails (Mr. R.J.H. Tyrrell, pers. comm., SMR file). Three leather shoes were also found in this vicinity and were classified as 'Lucas Type 5', a form of shoe in use from the late 16th/17th C-mid 19th century. (Raftery 1969,476).
