In reclaimed pasture, on S-facing slope, part of complex (MA121-153----). Circular raised (H 1.5m) area (37m N-S; 39m E-W), enclosed by ruined stone wall (H 0.5m; Wth 2.5m) E to W. Site scarped on W and quarried on SE. A larger cashel (MA121-153002-) located c. 40m to E has been levelled. The above description has been derived from D.

Date of upload: 14 January 2015 - MA121-153002: Ringfort - cashel, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA121-153002-. In reclaimed pasture, located on top of a small NE–SW ridge, within a field system 9MA121-153006-). When inspected in 1984 this cashel consisted of a roughly circular enclosure (70m N–S; 73m E–W) outlined by the remains of a substantial stone wall which was evident as grass-covered wall footings (c. 2m; H c. 0.5m). The wall appeared to have consisted of internal and external facings of large stones with a core of smaller stones. There was a gap at S but it was not clear if this was an original entrance. The interior was subdivided by fairly substantial grass-covered remains of stone walls forming two large subdivsions at the S, the interior of which were at a lower level to the rest of the cashel interior. The NW quadrant of the cashel was at a higher level than the rest of the interior, forming a roughly level platform outlined by an irregular scarp. A rectangular house (MA121-153004-) was located just inside the cashel wall at SW, and there was a possible hut site (MA121-153005-) against the inner face of the cashel wall at N. (SMR file, 1984). It was also recorded in a series of aerial photographs aerial photos (CUCAP BDT 68, 69, 70, 88, 89; GSI M 196, print 19-20) (SMR file). Lavelle (1994, 43, no. 259) recorded that it was 'Levelled during land reclamation (NMI).' There is another cashel (121-153001-) c. 40m to W.

Located in the interior of a cashel (MA121-153002-), just inside the cashel wall at SW. When inspected in 1984 this house consisted of a rectangular area (7m N–S; 5m E–W) defined by grass-covered wall footings (W 1.5m; H 0.5m) (SMR file). Lavelle (1994, 43, no. 259) recorded that it was 'Levelled during land reclamation (NMI).'

Located in the interior of a cashel (MA121-153002-). An inspection in 1984 recorded a possible hut site (1.5m N–S; 4m E-W) against the inner face of the cashel wall at N. It was described as being poorly defined and possibly a later in date than the cashel. (SMR file). Lavelle (1994, 43, no. 259) recorded that it was 'Levelled during land reclamation (NMI).'

In reclaimed pasture, encompassing a small E–SW ridge and the lands to S and E of the ridge. To S is an area of boggy ground with a small turlough. When inspected in 1984 this field system consisted of a series of low banks forming rectilinear fields. Within the field system were two cashels (MA121-153001-; MA121-153002-) and two house sites (MA121-153003-; MA121-153007-) and a possible hut site (MA121-153004-) (SMR file). It was also recorded in a series of aerial photographs (CUCAP BDT 68, 69, 70, 88, 89; GSI M 196, print 19-20) in which cultivation ridges are visible in many of the small field plots. (SMR file). It was levelled during reclamation (Lavelle 194, 76, no 565).

Located immediately to SE of a cashel (MA121-153001-). This monument was recorded in 1984 as a rectangular house (7.5m N–S; 5m E–W) outlined by a stone wall, evident as grass-covered footings (Wth 1.5m; max. H 0.25m), with a gap in the W wall, near the SW corner, possibly representing a doorway. (SMR file).
