Recorded monuments

• LI014-004 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on a gentle W-facing slope in poorly-drained, undulating pasture. The monument is obscured by dense scrub vegetation. It consists of a circular area (25.4m NW-SE; 25.8m NE-SW) enclosed by an earthen bank with an external fosse. The bank (Wth 1.9m; int. H 0.8m) is of uniform height. The fosse is wide and appears to be regular all round apart from at E where it is crossed by a causeway (Wth 3.5m; H 0.1 -0.15m). The interior surface is uneven and slopes down slightly to N.

• LI014-005 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on a S-facing slope, immediately E and S of a field boundary. Depicted on the 1923 OS map as a D-shaped enclosure defined on its W side by a N-S field boundary and from N to S by the curving arch of an earthen bank; the depiction suggests this is the E side of a ringfort, the W side being levelled. It is now evident as a sub-rectangular area (c. 47m N-S; 19m E-W), enclosed N to E by a bank and defined E to S by a scarped edge (H 0.8m; Wth 10.6m), and defined by a field boundary on W side. The bank (int. H 0.5m; Wth 2.4m: ext. H 0.3m) is of earth-and-stone construction and is better defined in the N (int. H 1.2m; Wth 1.2m; ext. H 1.5m). There is a gap in the enclosing element at SE (Wth 1.6m) which may represent an entrance. The interior surface is relatively even and slopes down to S. There are piles of topsoil, grassed over, in the NE part of the interior up against the bank. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 13 June 2013
