## Designated sites (National Parks and Wildlife Service)

No designated site (Special Area of Conservation, Special Protection Area, Natural Heritage Area or proposed one) touches the townland of Aghadowry.

## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- LF005-013: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLF005-013----. On a SE-facing slope in pasture. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A report in 1976 (SMR file) described the monument as a raised subcircular area (c. 53m NNE-SSW; c. 47m ENE-WSW) enclosed by a substantial bank of earth and stone with a wide deep external fosse and a possible original entrance at SE. It has since been almost completely destroyed by quarrying. All that survives is a very small portion of the interior (max. dim. 3m) which is enclosed by a wide low bank of earth and stone (Wth c. 4.5-6m; H 0.1-0.6m) from NE-S-W. Because the bank is heavily overgrown with scrub it is unclear whether the original feature has been augmented by upcast from the quarry. A low, poorly defined rise marks the circuit of the remainder of the perimeter. The fosse is not visible at ground level and the present entrance is at SE. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011

Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12).

---

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
