Recorded monuments

• LF011-025 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a low but prominent rise in pasture. A raised circular area (diam. c. 20m) defined by a low scarp (H 0.3-0.5m) with a shallow external fosse (Wth 4m; D 0.2m). It is divided into unequal portions by a NE-SW field boundary, which marks the boundary between the two townlands. The much-larger portion, to the NW (in Kinkillew townland), has been levelled and is not visible at ground level. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• LF011-032001 Graveyard
  Description

  On a low knoll in undulating pasture. A raised oval area (49m N-S; 45m E-W) enclosed from NE-E-SE by a wide, low bank of earth and stone (Wth 6m; H 0.4-0.5m) and from SW-N-NNE by a scarp (H 1-1.8m). Elsewhere it is defined by a hedgerow. The external base of both the bank and scarp is revetted in places with large upright slabs. There is no trace of a fosse and the original entrance is not recognisable. The interior slopes appreciably from W-E. Despite being named 'Old Graveyard' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, no grave-markers of any kind are visible. A possible church (LF011-032002-) is associated. The size and morphology of the graveyard, and the townland name, suggest that this may be an early ecclesiastical foundation.

• LF011-032002 Church
  Description

  Within a graveyard (LF011-032001-). A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded an irregular stony area at W, which may have been the last vestiges of a building, possibly a church site. It is no longer identifiable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan, Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 5 June 2013
