• MA062-017001 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, partly converted to forestry, located on a low ridge with a gradual fall of ground for c. 80m to NW towards the River Moy. A ‘Fording and Ferry’ point on the river is marked on the 1837 OS 6-inch map to NW. A natural basin of boggy land lies c. 300m to E–SE, much of which is planted with forestry. There is a rath (MA061-111001-) c. 240m to NNW on the opposite side of the river. Roughly circular, slightly raised area (33m NNW–SSE) defined by an earthen scarp (Wth slope 3-4m; ext. H 1.5m at NE and SW, 0.8m at SSE). The rath is bisected roughly centrally by a field fence/property boundary on a NNW–SSE axis. To E of the fence, the rath is largely grass covered, with hawthorn and hazel around the perimeter; to W of the fence, the rath is engulfed in impenetrable blackthorn, and the surrounding field is planted with conifers to within 1m of the rath. The enclosing scarp is generally well defined; it is enhanced on the N half by the natural fall of ground, and is slightly lower and less pronounced at E–SE. A low eroded area (Wth c. 2m) in the scarp at E, flanked by large stones on the N side, may mark an original entrance. The interior is level. Roughly in the centre of the E half, abutting the E side of the bisecting field fence, there is a low, D-shaped platform (8.5m N–S; 4m E–W to fence), which may be the remains of a circular hut site (MA062-027003-). A souterrain (MA062-017002) is indicated on the 1837 OS 6-inch map in the N half of the rath, where it is shown as a small circular feature annotated ‘Cave’.

• MA062-017002 Souterrain
  Description

  In a rath (MA062-017001-). A souterrain is shown on the 1837 edition OS 6-inch map in the N half of the rath, where it is indicated as a circular feature, annotated ‘Cave’; it is not shown on the 1919 edition. There is no obvious evidence of the souterrain in the E half of the rath interior, and dense overgrowth impeded full inspection of the W half. It is possible that a D-shaped raised area/possible hut site (MA062-017003-) roughly in the centre of the interior may mark the location of the souterrain.

• MA062-017003 Hut site
  Description

  In a rath (MA062-017001-). A possible house/hut site is evident as low, sod-covered D-shaped platform (8.5m N–S; 4m E–W to fence) located roughly in the centre of the E half of the rath, abutting the E side of a field fence that bisects the rath. The platform is defined by a low, curving scarp (Wth slope 1.2m; max. H 0.45m) incorporating stones along its top and sides. The straight side to W is bordered by the fence. To W of the fence there is ephemeral evidence to suggest a continuation of this feature, suggesting that it may be circular in plan, however, dense overgrowth made it difficult to confirm this. It is also possible that this marks the location of a souterrain (MA062-017002), which is shown on the 1837 6-inch map as a circular feature in the N half of the rath.
