- LI031-068001 Concentric enclosure
Description
In reclaimed pasture, immediately W of enclosures (LI031-068002/003-). Depicted on the OSi 25-inch map as a raised circular-shaped area (diam. c. 29m) defined by a scarp with wide fosse and external bank from SE-S-SW. Monument described by O’Kelly (1943, 232) as a Type C earthwork consisting of ‘a large flat-topped platform surrounded by a fosse. Outside this is a narrow, low bank, surrounded by a second fosse. Lastly a large, wide, high bank surrounds the whole. The banks have been completely levelled on the N and NW sides. A small, low circular mound occupies the NE quadrant of the platform. In the centre of the SE quadrant of the outer bank is a narrow break and inside it a causeway leads across the fosse to the top of the inner bank, but does not continue across the inner fosse. The maximum height of the platform over the fosse-bottom is 15’ [4.5m] and the overall diameter of the structure is 250’ [76m]. Outline of much degraded monument consisting of a circular-shaped area defined by a tree-lined scarp with fosse, and remains of an outer bank from SE-S-W, faint traces of an external fosse visible on OSi orthophoto taken between 2005-12 and Digital Globe orthoimage taken 20/09/2020. Trace of possible causeway at SE visible on the Google Earth orthoimage taken 03/03/2013. The monument is located within a large rectangular-shaped field, visible on the OSi orthophoto taken 2005-12 and Digital Globe orthoimage taken 20/09/2020. A field boundary running NW-SE to the W of the monument, is depicted on the 1840 ed. OSi 6-inch map and not depicted on the 1907 ed. OSi 25-inch map which suggests that it was levelled between these dates.

- LI031-069 Road - road/trackway
Description
In reclaimed pasture, with enclosure (LI031-070001-) annotated ‘Entrenchment’ 105m to W, second enclosure (LI031-068001-) 35m to N. Outline of roadway (L. 1km; Wth 5.2-6.5m) running N-S clearly visible on OSi orthophoto taken 2005-12. On this aerial image the outline of the road is clearly visible as a linear feature flanked on either side by a fosse. This trackway appears to run onto an existing laneway at S end of road as depicted on OSi 25-inch map. At N end of roadway it runs onto a stream or ditch and from there runs N parallel to the stream towards the public road close to Meanus Cross Roads, and may have provided access to the early Christian enclosure at Killorath (LI031-040001-). The townland name Boherygeela or Bóthar Ó gCadhla (the road of Uí Chadhla) may be named after this trackway. According to Gowen (1987, 142) this trackway was ‘one of a network of roads in the area around Caherguillamore and Meanus (Eoin Grogan, pers. comm.) and leads to the site of the medieval church of Meanus [Killorath LI031-040001-?] which lies roughly half a mile east of the present church building [Meanus R.C. Church] and is known locally as a Mass Path’. Gowen (ibid.) described this trackway as consisting of a ‘a slightly raised surface with a low bank and ditch on either side’. A short section of the trackway (Site PC/2/32) was excavated by Margaret Gowen in 1986, prior to the construction of the Bord Gáis Éireann Gas Pipeline (Gowen 1988, 142-5). The results of this excavation were summarised as follows; ‘This long, straight stretch of road, not recorded on any edition of the OS, was revealed in aerial photography. It is also clearly visible on the ground. The pipeline crossed the road at a point where it is disturbed. The remains elsewhere display a profile not unlike that of the 'Cladh na Leac' [LI031-010001-] at Lough Gur with a low bank and ditch on either side. Two cuttings were opened’ (Gowen 1987, 24). Excavation revealed the trackway to consist, ‘of a roughly, and thinly, metalled surface of angular limestone pebbles and stones up to 10-15cm in size. It had a maximum width of 5.2m in cutting 2 but is likely to be up to 6.5m in width elsewhere. The surface was not particularly level, especially in cutting 1 where a pothole-type depression existed and part of the track surface had been truncated. Two small depressions on the road surface in cutting 2 may possibly be interpreted as ruts. The two ditches bounding both sides of the track are likely to be contemporary with the construction of the road, though upcast from the ditches had collapsed over the edges of the metalled surface of the roadway’ (Gowen 1988, 143). Gowen concluded that ‘as no datable finds were recovered from sealed contexts it is impossible to date this structure. Its similarity, in sectional profile, to the Cladh na Leac at Lough Gur makes comparison tempting: the latter is considered to be of possible prehistoric date. It is likely to have been in existence in medieval times as it appears to lead to the site of the medieval church at Meanus and can possibly be associated with the trackways at Caherguillamore. Although these too are undated, they appear to be associated with the medieval field-systems in the area’ (ibid., 144).

- LI031-070001 Ringfort - rath
Description
In wet pasture, 40m N of townland boundary with Crean, with annexe or conjoined ringfort (LI031-070002----) to E. Enclosure (LI031-071----) lies 70m to NE, road (LI031-069----) 105m to W, ringfort (LI031-106----) annotated ‘Lisduffnacrean’ lies 345m to SW. Monument annotated ‘Entrenchment’ on 1897 ed. OSi 25-inch map. Depicted on this map as raised roughly D-shaped platform (dims. c. 50m NW-SE x 50m NE-SW) with straight sides at E and S defined by a bank visible at W only elsewhere reduced to a scarp with fosse visible from NW-N-E, and conjoined enclosure to E. Westropp (1919, 16) suggested that this monument may have been one of the assembly places in Co. Limerick. Described by Westropp (1920, 374) as follows; ‘on the road from Rathmore to Caherguillamore, and, despite its apparently low site, has pleasant, distant views of Knockfirina, Tory Hill and the Galtees. Its plan consists of an irregular, rather shield-shaped platform to the east, surrounded by a fosse. The western part is cut into a slight “rise” on the northern face, the rest terraced, like its neighbour, 4 to 5 feet [1.2-1.5m] over the low field, and a few feet lower than the rise. The western mound measures 190 feet [58m] across north and south, and 230 feet [70m] east and west. It had a parapet, now quite levelled, on which grow several large hawthorns. It is 110 feet [33.5m] long at its junction with the other wing. I saw no stone facing. The eastern wing [LI031-070002-] is still more irregular, about 180 feet [55m] east and west, and 165 feet [50m] to 200 feet [61m] north and south, with a few bushes on its eastern parapet, and a wet fosse. Outside the north ditch was a bold outer mound, 9 to 12 feet [2.7m – 3.6m] thick and 5 to 7 feet [1.5m – 2.1m] over the fosse. The north cusp is 7 feet [2.1m] high, and well preserved, running into the usual angle between the platforms, and crowded with hawthorns.’ Earthwork described by O’Kelly (1944, 51) as consisting of, ‘two conjoined sub-rectangular enclosures which are bounded only by fosses, which vary between 15’ [4.5m] and 30’ [9m] in width and are about 5’ [1.5m] deep. A common fosse separates the two portions, and if at any time there were banks, no trace of them has survived. The long axis runs N.E-S.W. and measures 475’ [145m] overall. Both portions of the monument are 270’ [82m] wide. The entrance is not recognisable. It is situated in poor low-land.’ The conjoined earthwork is visible as D-shaped area enclosed by a fosse with trace of partially tree-lined bank from NW-NE on OSi orthophotograph taken between 2005-12. Trace of inner fosse from NW-NE and possible causeway gap at NW. Outline of monument visible on Google Earth orthoimage dated 20/09/2020. Traces of post-1700 field boundary intersects the site at SE and possible field drains intersect at N, NE and SW are visible on both the OSi orthophotograph and Google Earth orthoimages.
