Recorded monuments

• LI031-211 Excavation - miscellaneous
  Description

  On flat wet pasture 310m E of the River Maigue and the townland boundary with Ballynabanoge. One of a group of five prehistoric sites (LI031-212/213/214/215----) excavated within 500m on the Bord Gáis Éireann's Pipeline to the West in 2002 in Inchinclare and Rosstemple townlands (Grogan, et.al. 2007). Three pits were archaeologically excavated (02E0551, Taylor 2004). The fills of the features were similar and consisted of dark grey silty clay with moderate quantities of burnt stone and flecks of charcoal. No artefacts or datable material was recovered. Pit 2 was amorphous in plan (2.8m N-S; 1.7m E-W and D. 0.23m) with concave sides and a fairly flat base. As the entire feature was not revealed, it is possible that the excavated evidence represents the terminus of a wide curvilinear feature extending into the adjacent field. The fill of the pit also spread beyond the E limits of the feature. A late post-medieval stone-filled drain cut across the pit. Pit 8 was a linear feature with slightly bulbous ends (2.64m N-S; 0.8m E-W and D. 0.22m). Pit 9 was a small teardrop-shaped feature (0.95m E-W; 0.5m N-S and D. 0.22m) with steep sides and a concave base. The archaeological remains uncovered at the site are typical of the miscellaneous types of features that were uncovered during the construction of the pipeline. These consisted of pits containing charcoal and fire-heated stone. The features have parallels with Fulachta fia sites, a prehistoric, likely Bronze Age date is proposed.

• LI031-212 Excavation - miscellaneous
  Description

  On flat wet pasture 280m E of the River Maigue and the townland boundary with Ballynabanoge. One of a group of five prehistoric sites (LI031-211/213/214/215----) excavated within 500m on the Bord Gáis Éireann's Pipeline to the West in 2002 in Inchinclare and Rosstemple townlands (Grogan et. al. 2007). No trace of the monument was present on historic maps or aerial photographs prior to the discovery of the site during pipeline construction. A single pit and a small spread of burnt clay was excavated at the site (02E0552, Taylor 2004). The pit was almost perfectly circular (ext. diam. 0.8m; D. 0.28m), with steep sides and a concave base. Excavation revealed that the cut of the pit was carefully executed, with the sides and base smoothly excavated into the natural boulder clay. The fill of the pit was a mid-grey/brown silty clay with a moderate amount of charcoal and occasional fire-cracked stones. An irregular-shaped patch of charcoal was located 6m NE of the pit. This material consisted of oxidised silty clay (L. 1.2m; Wth. 0.5m and D. 0.03m). This appeared to be evidence for in situ burning. No artefacts were recovered; however, a large amount of charcoal obtained from a sieved sample from the pit fill was suitable for species identification and should be sufficient to provide a radiocarbon determination. Interpretation of these isolated features is difficult. The cut of the pit indicates that a great deal of care went into its preparation, a feature that has been noted in the pits of Bronze Age cremation burials excavated elsewhere in Co. Limerick as part of the pipeline project (e.g. BGE 3/75/2, 3, 02E0498). No cremated bone was recovered from this site. The site is considered likely to be prehistoric in date.
