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

- LI011-045: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLI011-045----. In farmyard, on break in W-facing slope. Monument, depicted as embanked circular enclosure on 1923 OS 6-inch map, has been engulfed within farmyard complex. A roughly circular area (diam. 28m E-W) can be discerned, defined S->N by scarped edge which appears to be natural break in slope. From NE->E area skirted by artificially raised horse-training paddock, from E->SE a fence defines area, and SE->S it is bordered by a farm shed. Interior area under grass and slopes down to W. It is unclear what if anything of original site survives. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- LI011-047: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLI011-047----. In pasture, on N-facing slope; immediately NW of farmyard. Oval area (24.6m N-S; 31.5m E-W) enclosed by earthen bank (int. H 0.9m; ext. H 2.65m) and external fosse (D 1m; Wth 1.7m). Bank is best preserved SW->N, but has been lowered by erosion N->ESE. Bank and fosse removed SE->SSW to allow access to interior from farmyard. Fosse is best preserved along W arc, but is truncated by field walls at SSW and NNE. Level interior, covered by mature deciduous trees, is now used as domestic dump, particularly SW quadrant. A narrow trench (6.5m N-S; 1.1m E-W; D 0.6m) at SE corner of interior is probably associated with farmyard. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- LI011-048: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLI011-048----. In pasture, on gentle S-facing slope. Monument, depicted on 1923 OS 6-inch map as ovoid enclosure (c. 30m E-W; c. 40m N-S), has been levelled except for section of enclosing earth-and-stone bank (int. H 0.35m) W->NE. This forms part of field boundary system; a dry-stone field wall runs along external face of bank and continues as linear boundary to SW and E. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- LI011-050: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLI011-050----. In pasture, on gentle SW-facing slope. Roughly circular area (22.3m N-S; 20.6m E-W) defined by scarped edge (H 0.4m; Wth 4.6m), best preserved NNE->E and SW->NW. A slight dip (D 0.2m) immediately to W of scarp, with low rise (H 0.15m) running along its outer edge, is probably natural feature. Interior is under pasture except for S half which is covered with briars. Immediately N of enclosure is area of limestone outcrop. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- LI011-052: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLI011-052----. In pasture, atop hill. Monument, depicted on 1841 OS 6-inch map as embanked circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m), has been levelled. However, trace of a low earthen bank (int. H 0.15m; ext. H 0.1m; Wth c. 7m) can be discerned NE->ESE. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- LI011-053: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLI011-053----. In reclaimed pasture, on gentle S-facing slope, in area of outcropping limestone. Monument, depicted as embanked circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m) on 1841 OS 6-inch map, has been levelled. No trace of monument evident when inspected. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011

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.
