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

- KD027-004: Barrow - ring-barrow, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CKD027-004----. Mid-way down a long moderately steep SW-facing slope in tillage. In 2000 (SMR file), the monument survived as a small partially overgrown, circular area (int. diam 5m) enclosed by a low earthen bank (int. H 0.15m; Wth 2.4m; ext. H 0.5m). with no trace of an outer fosse. However, ploughing up to the edge of the monument may have resulted in its infilling. In 2007, the monument was completely ploughed over revealing a central circular area of grey ash, charcoal and burnt bone which was girdled by a band (Wth c. 1.2m) of pale yellow soil with possible human bone, charcoal and burnt earth inclusions. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 30 August 2012
- KD027-005: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CKD027-005----. Prominently located at the E end of a pasture ridge with panoramic views N-E-SSE. A very large circular area (int. diams. 95m E-W; 94m N-S) is enclosed by a low broad, earthen bank (int. H 0.2-0.5m; Wth 3.4-6m; ext H 0.2-1.1m) which is almost dug away and replaced by a straight modern field bank at NW, and which appears to be constructed on a berm (Wth 3.6m) along the N. Opposing gaps at E (Wth 5.2m) and WSW (Wth 4m) may be enlarged original entrances. The interior has been dug out (D 1m) SE-S-SW, and there is a smaller dug out area in the NE sector. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 30 August 2012
- KD027-038: Megalithic structure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CKD027-038----. Near the top of a long and moderately steep SW-facing slope in tillage. A ringbarrow (KD027-004----) lies c. 130m downslope to the S. While named ‘Dolmen’ on the latest ed. (1939) of the OS 6-inch map, the site comprises a pair of rough boulders; a larger S one (L 2.5m; Wth 2.5m; H 1.8m) partly resting on a smaller N one (L 1.6m; Wth 1.3m; H 0.7m). Although not accepted as a megalithic tomb by de Valera and O’Nualláin (1972, 101), they note that a human skeleton is said to have been found at the site.

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.
