• LI023-065 Barrow - ring-barrow
  Description

  In wet pasture, 10m N of a land drain and 30m E of a tributary of the Camoge River. A ring-barrow (LI023-239----) lies 115m to NE. Not depicted on OSi historic maps. Described by Ó Ríordáin and MacDermott (1949, 127) as a barrow on an irregularly-shaped platform. Visible as a small circular-shaped earthwork on the Bruff aerial photographic survey in 1986 (Bruff AP 4/3642). Monument is visible as a faint circular-shaped earthwork (diam. 8m) on Digital Globe orthophotos taken 2011-13 and on Google Earth orthoimages taken 28/06/2018.

• LI023-066001 House - indeterminate date
  Description

  In wet pasture, 5m E of a tributary of the Camoge River. A second house of indeterminate date (LI023-066001-) lies 12m to NE. Not depicted on OSi historic maps. Identified by Ó Ríordáin and MacDermott (1949, 136-8) as a house of indeterminate date (Ballingoola IV). Excavated in 1948 and described as following; 'Before excavation Ballingoola IV presented the appearance of a low mound with a flat top - in the form of an inverted saucer. There was no hollow nor indication of the entrance was in Ballingoola III, and, while we had every reason to believe that the latter site would prove to be a dwelling, we were inclined to think that Ballingoolf IV was a burial mound. Excavation, however, yielded results similar to those of Ballingoola III. The position of house walls was indicated by a circular band of charcoal about 6m in diameter which appeared at a depth of 17 to 20 cm. The amount of charcoal was much less than in Ballingoola III and there was no burning of the clay as on that site, nor were there any indications of the house having been re-built or altered. In general the evidence was of a less intensive occupation in Ballingoola IV, but of a house of construction similar to that on the neighbouring site. A spread of charcoal around the centre indicated the position of the hearth, but there were no successive layers and stones had not been laid down to give a base for it. At the entrance the ends of the ditch appeared, and between these and the house a spread of stones indicated that this area had been paved to provide an approach to the house' (Ó Ríordáin and MacDermott 1949, 136). Excavated monument is not visible on Digital Globe orthophotos taken 2011-13 and on Google Earth orthoimages taken 28/06/2018.

• LI023-066002 House - indeterminate date
  Description

  In wet pasture, 5m S of a land drain and 30m E of a tributary of the Camoge River. A second house of indeterminate date (LI023-066001-) lies 12m to NE. Not depicted on OSi historic maps. Identified by Ó Ríordáin and MacDermott (1949, 136-8) as a house of indeterminate date (Ballingoola III). Excavated in 1948 and described as following; 'Ballingoola III showed before excavation as a low mound with a broad shallow ditch - the maximum difference between bottom of ditch and highest point of mound being 65cm. The entrance was apparent before excavation as demonstrated by the incurving of the contours towards the centre on the eastern side of the site. The entrance, the main portion of the interior and sections through the ditch were excavated. In general the site suggests a house of the same type as the hut at Grange, but larger, average diameter about 6 metres. The entrance presents rather confused evidence and it is difficult to know where the house proper ceases here, but there is a suggestion that the house was longer on the East-West than on the North-South axis. The only finds were two pieces of polished stone axes (both fragments broken from the butt-ends of the axes), and a crudely chipped flint. The larger axe fragment (12:5) was of shale, the other (12:6) of a close-grained dark stone. These finds came from the north-east quadrant inside the inner ditch (Ó Ríordáin and MacDermott 1949, 135-6). Excavated monument is not visible on Digital Globe orthophotos taken 2011-13 and on Google Earth orthoimages taken 28/06/2018.

• LI023-067001 Barrow - ring-barrow
  Description

  In wet pasture, 5m E of a tributary of the Camoge River. A second ring-barrow (LI023-067002-) lies 4m to S. Not depicted on OSi historic maps. Identified by Ó Ríordáin and MacDermott (1949, 127) as a ring-barrow (Ballingoola II) and described as a level circular-shaped area (diam. 6m) defined by a shallow ditch and the remains of an outer bank which was only discernible in places. Excavated by MacDermott and described as following; The sites, which consisted of a level space enclosed by a shallow ditch and a very slight outer bank (only discernible in places), were approximately of equal size 6 metres in diameter from outside of ditch to outside of ditch. Their centres were 10 metres apart. Before excavation the ditch of Site I (the southern barrow) was most clearly marked at the south side and traces of an outer bank were discernible at the south and south-east, rising up at the south-east towards the edge of a modern field-ditch which bordered on the sites at this side. The outer bank was again visible at the north where the ground rose and fell again to leave a slight depression between Sites I and II. The ditch of Site II was clearly marked at the south, north and west, and on the west the outer bank could also be traced. At the east the ditch was barely visible and there was no trace of a bank. Outside the barrows, to the east, the ground sloped towards a depression caused by an ancient river bed which could be also traced round the south of Barrow I. On removal of the sod from Site II, charcoal spreads were again noted. In the south-east quadrant a few fragments of pottery and stone-axe chips were found in a stony charcoal spread just outside the ditch at the east. This spread formed part of a raised stony area which appeared at the north east of the barrow and which contained much charcoal. Extensions were cut to determine the extent of the burnt material and a widespread stony area was revealed containing thick deposits of charcoal and burnt bone. A considerable quantity of pottery, Beaker and Neolithic in type, was found in this area, also numerous flints and some fragments of stone axes. A setting of stones indicating a hearth site overlay a pit with a heavy charcoal content in which pottery and flints were found to a depth of 44 cm. Another pit, 35 cm. deep, also contained much charcoal and burnt bone' (Ó Ríordáin and MacDermott 1949, 139-42). Monument is not visible on Digital Globe orthophotos taken 2011-13 or on Google Earth orthoimages taken 28/06/2018.

• LI023-067002 Barrow - ring-barrow
  Description

  In wet pasture, 5m E of a tributary of the Camoge River. A second ring-barrow (LI023-067001-) lies 4m to N. Not depicted on OSi historic maps. Identified by Ó Ríordáin and MacDermott (1949, 127) as a ring-barrow (Ballingoola I) and described as a level circular-shaped area (diam. 6m) defined by a shallow ditch and the remains of an outer bank which was only discernible in places. Excavated by MacDermott and described as following; The sites, which consisted of a level space enclosed by a shallow ditch and a very slight outer bank (only discernible in places), were approximately of equal size 6 metres in diameter from outside of ditch to outside of ditch. Their centres were 10 metres apart. Before excavation the ditch of Site I (the southern barrow) was most clearly marked at the south side and traces of an outer bank were discernible at the south and south-east, rising up at the south-east towards the edge of a modern field-ditch which bordered on the sites at this side. The outer bank was again visible at the north where the ground rose and fell again to leave a slight depression between Sites I and II. Outside the barrows, to the east, the ground sloped towards a depression caused by an ancient river bed which could be also traced round the south of Barrow I. On excavation it was seen that the soil conditions on these sites were similar to those at Ballingoola III and IV a tenacious yellow clay underlay the humus everywhere except in the western half of Site I where boulder clay appeared. The ditches were cut into the clay to a depth of approximately 48cm. They had evidently filled or been filled very rapidly because the fill was practically indistinguishable from the undisturbed clay, but their outline was clearly marked in the sections by a dark humus band. The slight outer bank could not be seen in all the sections but in some places appeared clearly as a thin spread over the old turf line. There were no traces of any structure or grave remains in either barrow. Scatters of charcoal and burnt stone appeared near the centre in all quadrants of Site I. In the south-east quadrant were two dark hollows, approximate depth 35 cm., containing much charcoal and burnt stone. Some small fragments of coarse gritty pottery came from the hollow at the south. Trenches were cut through these hollows to determine the relation ship between them and the ditch and it was revealed that the ditch had been cut into the burnt material which therefore ante-dated the barrow. Charcoal and burnt stone also appeared under the bank at the east. Besides the pottery which was not distinctive, the only other finds from Ballingoola I were a small flint flake and some waste fragments of chert' (Ó Ríordáin and MacDermott 1949, 139-42).

• LI023-071 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Listed by O'Kelly (1942-3, 180) as Earthwork, Type A. Situated on poorly drained grassland with drainage ditch immediately to N and stream 80m to W which forms townland boundary with Knockfennell. Described in 1943 as a 'circular platform of earth slightly raised over the level of an extensive marsh which surrounds it. There does not seem to have been a fosse, and the entrance is not recognisable. Its maximum height over the surface of the marsh is 3' 6" [1m] and its overall diameter is 126' [38.4m]' (O'Kelly 1942-3, 180).

• LI023-072 Standing stone
  Description

  Listed by O'Kelly (1942-3, 180) as Ballingoola No. 2. Described in 1943 as an 'irregularly shaped, well weathered block of limestone, 3' [0.9m] high, 4' [1.2m] long and 2' [0.6m] thick' (O'Kelly 1942-3, 180). According to O'Kelly this standing stone was one of seven in the townland which marked the route of an ancient road which ran 'from Lough Gur Cross (LI032-061----) to the northern barony boundary. Beyond this (in the barony of Clanwilliam) the line is marked by further three stones. These stones seem to mark the line of an ancient road or track. The track itself is visible only for a short distance in the townland of Ballingoola connecting stones No. 2 and 3 above and continuing for some little distance on each side of them. Just north of stone No. 2 the track runs across a field which was ploughed in 1941. The surface of the track was disturbed and showed as a broad band of limestone chippings cutting across the dark coloured soil' (O'Kelly 1942-3, 180). No surface remains visible of any standing stone in area marked on OS 6-inch map. A boulder pushed into the E face of the hedgerow appears to be the remains of the standing stone described by O'Kelly as Ballingoola No. 2.

• LI023-076 Enclosure
  Description

  No surface remains visible of any enclosure or 'fort' in area marked on OS 6-inch map. Listed by O'Kelly as a 'fort' and described as following; 'The first edition of the O.S. map shows a fort at this location, but no trace of it now remains. A sand pit was opened near the site and quarrying operations eventually caused the total destruction of the structure. It is not marked on the last (1927) edition of the map' (O'Kelly 1942-3, 180). No antiquity or fort is depicted in this area on the first ed. OS 6-inch map, a small quarry or sand pit is depicted in the SE quadrant of the field and this feature may be the 'fort' that O'Kelly mentions above.

• LI023-077 Habitation site
  Description

  In wet, low-lying pasture, on the floodplain, c. 200m to S of the Camoge River, which marks the townland boundary with Friarstown and Caherelly West. Not depicted on OS historic mapping. Identified and excavated in 1949 by Ó Ríordáin (1950, 263) as Ballingoola No. V. Described by Ó Ríordáin as following; 'Situated on low marshy ground, lying in the valley of the Camoge south of the river. There is a slight rise in the ground towards the site so that some what drier conditions prevailed there than in the immediate neighbourhood of the river. Before excavation the site appeared as a very low mound with a saucer like central depression. The mound was surrounded by a shallow ditch and the diameter of the site from centre of ditch to centre of ditch was about 11 metres. The ditch appeared to be interrupted by a causeway at the north which may have marked the entrance. In general appearance the site was similar to Ballingoola IV [LI023-066001-]. The whole of the central mound was excavated and 1-metre wide sections cut through the ditch. The material of the mound was a hard packed yellow clay. There was no perceptible change in colour or texture to distinguish either the piled-up mound material or the fill of the ditch which contained no humus, and thus it was impossible to distinguish clearly the outline of the latter in any section. Some stones in the ditch at the east and west seemed to indicate the bottom at a depth of about 48 cm. The only sign of habitation revealed by the excavation was a slight flecking of charcoal towards the centre of the site. It is assumed that the site was a house of the same type as those at Ballingoola III [LI023-066002-] and IV [LI023-066001-] the position of the walls of which was indicated by charcoal and burnt clay, but as Ballingoola V had evidently not been burned no plan could be obtained. There were no finds and, as already suggested for the similar sites, a short occupation may be postulated possibly for some seasonal purpose. Monument is not visible today on Digital Globe orthophotos taken 2011-13 or on Google Earth orthoimages taken 28/06/2018. See attached Google Earth orthoimage taken 28/06/2018.

According to O'Kelly this standing stone was one of seven in the townland which marked the route of an ancient road which ran 'from Lough Gur Cross (LI032-061----) to the northern barony boundary. Beyond this (in the barony of Clanwilliam) the line is marked by further three stones. These stones seem to mark the line of an ancient road or track.
