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

- MA063-030: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA063-030----. In poor-average, undulating pasture, located on a rise, with a sharp fall of ground to W-NW. A circular enclosure (diam. 25-30m) is shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; it is not shown on later editions. This possible rath is evident as a slightly raised circular area (diam. 30m) defined ESE-S by a partly levelled scarp (H 1m), which is reduced to a low undulation elsewhere. The interior is level and grass-covered. The entrance was most likely to the E, where the natural slope is gentle. When inspected in 1996, two straight field walls truncated the scarp at W and S, and there were two sod-covered heaps of stone, most likely field clearance, on the scarp at the SE; these have since been removed.

- MA063-031: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA063-031----. In pasture, utilising a low rise. There is a drain/stream 25-30m to SW. Ground rises to S and falls to N. Raised circular area (32m E−W; 35m N−S) defined by an inner bank, immediately outside which it is enclosed by a fosse and external bank. The inner bank (Wth 5m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 3.2m at NW, 2.8m at NE) has remnants of drystone facing on its inner slope. Its external slope drops steeply into the fosse (Wth 3m), which is deeply cut and well defined around the circuit. The external bank (Wth 2.8m at NW, 3.5m at NE; int. H 1 at NW, 1.5m at NW; ext. H 0.6m at NW, 0.9m at NE) is well defined on the N half; on the S half it is adapted to serve as a field boundary, and is topped with a stone wall. There are two gaps in the inner bank: at ESE (Wth 2.4m) and at W (Wth 1.4m), both with a causeway across the fosse. At W the causeway leads to a broad corresponding break in the external bank; this is used as the current access to the rath. The gap and causeway at SE, which may have been an original entrance, are now blocked on the outer edge of the fosse by a bank/field fence incorporated into the line of the external bank. In the NW quadrant of the interior, there is a grassed-over hollow or depression (4m NE−SW; 1m NW-SE; D 0.3m) with a number of slabs and boulders protruding from it; its significance is uncertain. A number of large stones, in a rough arc, protrude from the grass adjacent to the inner face of the bank at N, also of uncertain significance. There are traces of cultivation ridges on a NE−SW axis across the interior. The inner bank is ringed with gorse and some blackthorn, which is encroaching in parts into the interior. The fosse and outer bank are cloaked in gorse, brambles, blackthorn and hawthorn, especially dense on the S arc where the outer bank serves as a field boundary.

In pasture, adjacent to a NW flowing drain/stream. A grass-covered mound (14m NW–SE; 11m NE–SW; H 0.6m) composed of a concentration of angular stone fragments in dark soil. There is possible burnt mound (MA063-062----) c. 40m to SE in the same field and a rath (MA063-031----) is located c. 20m to N. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 9 December 2020

In pasture, adjacent to a NW flowing drain/stream. This low, irregular rise (diam. 6-8m) is composed of angular stone fragments in dark brown soil. It may be a burnt mound. There is a burnt mound (MA063-061----) c. 40m to NW and a rath (MA063-031----) c. 60m to NE. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 9 December 2020

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

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.
