In undulating pasture, at S end of low rise. Circular area (30.6m N-S; 29m E-W) enclosed by earthen bank (int. H 0.85m; ext. H 1.6m) with external fosse (Wth 1.5m; D 0.7m); enclosing element overgrown with trees and bushes. Rough breaks in bank at N, E and SSW.

In undulating pasture. Circular area (23.7m N-S; 26m E-W) defined by scarped edge (H 0.8m; Wth 5.5m); scarp long and gradual except SE->SW where it is barely perceptible. Running along base of scarp, and concentric with it, is a field boundary which completely encloses site. Interior and scarped edge are covered by tall grass. At N is gate in field boundary.

In undulating pasture. Rectangular area (19m N-S; 28.7m E-W) defined to N by straight E-W field boundary and to E, S and W by scarped edge (max. H 0.7m) with rounded corners to SE and SW. Mid-way along S scarp are two recumbent slabs (L c. 0.445m; Wth c. 0.25m; H c. 0.35m). Interior is uneven and stony, covered with tall grass and brambles. Just N-of-centre is hollow area (3.15m N-S; 2.7m E-W) lined irregularly by low upright slabs, with concentration of loose stones at N end, and at NE corner upright stone (H 0.46m; Wth 0.35m) with pointed top. Between latter and scarped edge to W is another setting of low slabs roughly-defining rectangular area (c. 1m N-S; c. 0.6m E-W). Described by Begley (1906, 109-10) as 'may be the place now called Dromagarrum, where unbaptized children are buried. This site may be that referred to by Lewis (1837, 664) as 'remains of a very ancient church (LI018-015001-) ... at Flean'. Compiled by: Denis Power Revised by: Caimin O'Brien Date of revised upload: 12 November 2018 - LI018-015002: Church, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLI018-015002-. Possible church in Bealachdroma or Ballaghdromar which according to Begley (1906-109-110) was mentioned 'in the inquisition of 1298 as belonging to the manor of Shanid, and inhabited solely by Irish, which would indicate that it was a large tract lying between Ballyhahill and Athea, and may be the place now called Dromagarrum, where unbaptized children are buried (LI018-015001-). The site of another old church is pointed out in the townland of Flean where, tradition alleges, three bishops are buried. Referred to by Lewis (1837, 664) as in the parish of Glin are 'at Flean, in the mountains are the remains of a very ancient church of which the history is unknown'. The site of this possible church is probably the children's burial ground (LI018-015001-) in this townland.

In level pasture. Circular area (diam. c. 36m) enclosed by earthen bank (int. H 0.85m; ext. H 1.9m) with external fosse (D 0.4m; Wth 1.5m), and with counterscarp bank (H 0.25m) ESE->SSE. Enclosing element and parts of interior are covered by dense overgrowth. Entrance at N where break in bank (Wth 3.1m) corresponds with causeway over fosse; gap in bank at W (Wth 2m) caused by cattle accessing interior. Interior level and boggy especially SW quadrant which is heavily poached by cattle.

In undulating marshland. Roughly circular area (20m N-S; 24m E-W) enclosed by much-eroded scarped edge (H 0.8m; Wth 2m), with external fosse (Wth 1.7m; D 0.3m) W->E. Enclosing element is overgrown by gorse and bushes, especially on S side. Interior is partially covered by overgrowth, otherwise under rough pasture which is heavily poached by cattle.

H 1.1m), with external fosse (Wth c. 3m; D 0.3m) E->N. Field boundaries abut enclosure at N, SE and SW. Interior slopes down gently to N.
