• LI007-004 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a slight N-facing slope, on poorly drained pasture with good views from NNW-N-E. Depicted on the OS 25-inch map as a roughly circular-shaped enclosure. Monument surveyed by the ASI in 1999 and described as a subcircular-shaped raised area (24m E-W; 22m N-S) defined by the remains of a levelled bank (Wth 4.1m; int. H 0.15m; ext. H 0.3m) from NE-E-S-W-NW which is reduced to a scarp from NW-N-NE. The entrance is not apparent. The interior has a N-facing slope. Visible as a partially tree-lined monument on Digital Globe orthophotos taken 2011-13 and Google Earth orthoimage taken 28/06/2018.

• LI007-006 Megalithic tomb - wedge tomb
  Description

  On the western foothills of the Slievefelim Mountains, in rough pasture (600ft/183m OD) c. 1.2km to NW of Murroe and c. 0.75km to NW of Glenstal Abbey. Not depicted on OS historic mapping. Identified by Mr O Riordáin of the Glenstal Archaeological Society in 1958 (SMR File). Monument described in 1990 by Elizabeth Shee Twohig (1990, 50-1) as a single chamber or gallery (int. L 4m NE-SW), the N side of the gallery is intact and is defined by four orthostats and the S side of the gallery has one orthostat in place at each end (ibid). Two stones lying across the S side of the gallery are probably displaced side stones. Two stones which protrude just above the cairn material and which are parallel to the exterior of the gallery at N define an outer line of orthostats (ibid, 51). Three large, flattish stones to SE of the tomb are likely to be displaced capstones. According to local information, the capstones were removed in the early 1900s by workers on the Barrington estate of Glenstal Castle who apparently dug out the interior within the SW end of the tomb. This can be seen to have been excavated approximately 1m below the tops of the orthostats (ibid). The entrance is unclear. Most wedge tombs are open to W, however the stone (H 1.1m; T 0.4m) closing the western end of the gallery is one of the highest and most substantial stones in the tomb. The stone at the E end is lower and only 0.17m thick and would have been easier to move to facilitate an entrance. Shee Twohig (ibid.) stated that several other wedge tombs in the lower Shannon estuary have a similar arrangement where the E end is open e.g. Baurnadomeeny (TN038-009----), Co. Tipperary and Lough Gur (LI032-029----), Co. Limerick. Compiled by: Alison McQueen and Vera Rahilly Date of upload: 3 July 2020

• LI007-008 Children's burial ground
  Description

  Located at edge of modern forestry close to the meeting point of two streams, S of the county border with Tipperary. On the W bank of a stream running S from the Clare River which marks the townland boundary with Inchadrinagh, Co. Tipperary. The stream which forms the enclosing element on the E side of the burial ground forms the townland boundary with Meentolla. Annotated 'Kill Burial Ground for Children' on the 1840 ed. OS 6-unch map where it is depicted as a small circular area (approx. diam. 20m) defined by a dotted line. This enclosure is not depicted on revised editions of OS maps. Annotated 'Infants' Burial Ground (Disused)' on the 1897 OS 25-inch map. The site is difficult to locate on the ground. Site inspected in 1999 which recorded that the burial ground is no longer visible above ground level and no grave marker stones were identified, although the survey confirmed the location within a u-shaped bend of the ‘meandering N-S running stream’ based upon ‘local information’. Described by Westropp (1904-5, 438) as 'burial-ground on the Clare River, on the edge of Tipperary'.

• LI007-010001 Castle - unclassified
  Description

  The remains of a possible bawn wall belonging to Cappercullen Castle can be seen standing on the SE edge of a steep river valley with site of levelled Cappercullen House located 40m to W. Modern tennis courts now stand on the site of the levelled Cappercullen House. The wall which is visible today survives in the SE wall of the garden of Cappercullen House overlooking Cappercullen Glen immediately to SE. The wall has a clear batter visible on SE face only with alternating quoins visible on the angle, the lower wall footings of the SW wall (wall T 0.85m; H 0.5m) return survive. There is no batter visible on the SW wall return. The batter on the SE wall appears to have been built in order to support the masonry facing of the steep slope into which it is built. This sloping wall could be the remains of a bawn wall running parallel to the valley with the site of the levelled castle located on flat ground to the N in the area where a cottage stands today. The upstanding wall acts as a retaining wall for the garden where it has been built into the steep NW facing slope overlooking Cappercullen Glen. This wall belongs to a building depicted on the 1840 ed. OS 6-inch map which is shown as a narrow rectangular building aligned NNE-SSW running parallel to the steep river valley immediately to SE. On the OS 6-inch map it is depicted as one of several outbuildings associated with Cappercullen House. The quoin stones used in the construction the garden sheds of the walled garden located to W may have been reused from the medieval castle. Some of the quoins on the SW angle of the garden shed built up against the external face of the SE wall of the walled garden have a chamfered surface which may suggest that they came from the medieval castle. In 1569 Henry Mac Lysagh Omulrian, of Cappercullen was granted a royal pardon (Westropp 1906-07, 100). In 1604 Theobald Baron Bourgh, of Castleconnell was granted the castle and lands of Cappercullen which was formerly part of the estate of 'Conogher, mac Edmund, mac Lysagh, O'Mulrian' (ibid.). The castle of 'Capacullyn' is depicted on the 1656 Down Survey map of Abbeyowneybeg barony (Hib. Reg.). The terrier of the Down Survey parish map of Abbeyowneybeg stated that in this parish there was at Cappercullen 'A Castle two Thatched House and some Cabbins' (ibid.) On this map the castle is depicted as a tower house type structure standing on a low rise of ground with battlemented parapet. In 1641 Colonel Pierce Walsh of Abbeyowney was listed as the proprietor of the lands of 'Cappacullyn' which consisted of 261 acres of profitable land and 33 acres of bog (ibid.). The 1654-56 Civil Survey of Limerick recorded that Piers Walsh was the owner of 230 acres of land in 'Keapacnillin' (Cappercullen) 'with a Castle thereunto' (Simington 1938, 4). In 1667 the forfeited castle and lands of Cappercullen were granted to George Evans (Westropp 1906-07, 100). Around 1680 a walled garden was built to the W of the medieval castle (Murphy 2014, 19). Cappercullen House was built by Lord Carbery in the early 18th century (ibid., 21). Modern tennis courts now stand on the site of the levelled 18th century house.

• LI007-010002 Settlement deserted - medieval
  Description

  No surface remains visible of possible settlement that was clustered around the medieval castle of Cappercullen (LI007-010001-) as recorded in the 1657 Down Survey. In 1604 Theobald Baron Bourgh, of Castleconnell was granted the castle and lands of Cappercullen which was formerly part of the estate of 'Conogher, mac Edmund, mac Lysagh, O'Mulrian' (Westropp 1906-07, 100). The terrier of the 1657 Down Survey parish map of Abbeyowneybeg stated that there was at Cappercullen, 'A Castle two Thatched House and some Cabbins' (NLI, MS 718). In 1641 Colonel Pierce Walsh of Abbeyowney was listed as the proprietor of the lands of 'Cappacullyn' which consisted of 261 acres of profitable land and 33 acres of bog (ibid.).

• LI007-010005 Walled garden
  Description

  The walled garden now on the demesne of Glenstal Abbey was originally built c. 1680 by George Evans who acquired the forfeited lands and castle of Cappercullen in 1667. The walled garden was built to the W of the medieval castle of Cappercullen (LI007-010001-). In 1604 Theobald Baron Bourgh, of Castleconnell was granted the castle and lands of Cappercullen which was formerly part of the estate of 'Conogher, mac Edmund, mac Lysagh, O'Mulrian' (Westropp 1906-07, 100).

• LI007-014 Mass-rock
  Description

  Mass-rock (H 0.8m x Wth 0.8m x T 0.5m) located in woodland in Cappercullen Glen beside a stream which marks the townland boundary between Garranbane and Boarmanshill with Cappercullen Castle (LI007-010001-) 465m to SW. Mass-rock now standing beneath a modern stone roofed structure constructed by the Belgian monks of Glenstal Abbey with modern altar stone placed on top of the mass rock. Fragments of two 17th century tombs (LI007-015----/016----) and a sixteenth century tomb (LI007-017----) all of which come from Abbey Owney (LI014-014002-) in Abington have been built into the mass shelter. Two square shaped stones to the E of the shelter appear to be decorated and possibly came from the 17th Walsh family mausoleum at Owney Abbey. These stones have been built into the cliff face and reused as seats beside the mass shelter. Other cut stone fragments can be seen lying scattered around the site. 13th century architectural fragment from the Cistercian Owney Abbey (LI014-014002-) consisting of a dressed stone with roll moulding on the angle has been reused as a leg to support the rear altar of the mass-shelter. Two cut stone panels (H 0.9m x Wth 0.45m) decorated with incised floral motifs and S-shaped scrolls have been incorporated into the pillars of the mass shelter on either side of the mass-rock. These two fragments probably came from the 17th century wall memorial (LI014-014017-) of Edmund Walsh of Owney Abbey (LI014-014002-) and were carved by Patrick Kerin.
