No designated site (Special Area of Conservation, Special Protection Area, Natural Heritage Area or proposed one) touches the townland of Bryanstown.
Recorded monuments
- LH024-039 Mound
Description
The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 July 2007 Situated in a field on the S outskirts of Drogheda. Circular mound (max. diam. c. 35m, H 4m) truncated to the N by a modern laneway and to the W by a paddock. The mound bears the popular title of 'Cromwell's Mount' and is traditionally the site of a Cromwellian artillery bastion (Buckley 1986a, 99). However, the site is shown as a cairn with external fosse on the 1835 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. Owing to its prominent position with extensive views over the River Boyne to the N, coupled with its unlikely strategic value as an artillery bastion, this site has been reclassified as either a barrow or a denuded passage grave.
