Recorded monuments

• MA093-058 Ringfort - unclassified
  Description

  In rough ground, with a farmyard immediately to W, located on a low natural rise, overlooking an expanse of rolling pasture to NE; views are restricted to S and W by buildings and trees; there is wet boggy ground to SW. A railway track is located a few meters to S. A circular embanked enclosure is indicated on the 1838 and 1916 OS 6-inch maps. The remains consist of a roughly circular area (diam. c. 27-30m) defined W–NNE by a dilapidated stony rise or scarp; at E–SW the outline can be traced only as a cropmark/concentration of thistles. A post and wire fence, on a NE–SW axis, crosses the E third of the enclosure. There are farm buildings immediately to W and N–NNE. Covered in long grass and weeds, with sycamore and beech growing around the perimeter. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 29 June 2022

• MA093-059 Ringfort - cashel
  Description

  In pasture, located on level ground on top of a steep NW-facing slope, which overlooks a small valley extending to N. There are good views over the surrounding rolling grassland, with expanses of forestry c. 200m to E. Slightly raised broadly oval area (26.5m E−W; 29m N−S) defined by a drystone wall. The wall is built of small and medium-sized stones, with occasional larger stones or boulders in the basal courses. It is most substantial on the SE arc (Wth 3m; int. H 1.1m; ext. H 1.1m). Elsewhere around the circuit, it has largely collapsed or been modified. On the SW and NE arcs, a narrow drystone wall (Wth 0.8m) rises proud of a broad spread of stones; this appears to be a modern wall built on top of the collapsed original wall. On the NW arc the original wall is reduced to a stony scarp (H 0.8m; Wth slope 1.5m), built up to compensate for the natural fall of ground on this side. A low point in this scarp at N now allows access to the interior. The enclosing wall is of similar construction to, but noticeably wider than adjacent field walls which radiate from it to N, ESE, SSE and W. It serves as a property boundary on the SW arc. The level interior is crossed roughly centrally by the tumbled, partly sod-covered remnants of a field wall (Wth c. 1m; H 0.2-0.3m) on a N-S axis. A sod-covered, D-shaped stony mound (6.4m N−S; 3.8m E−W; H 0.5m) abuts the W side of this field wall, roughly in the centre of the enclosure; this seems to be a field clearance heap. The interior is grassy; clumps of brambles grow on the enclosing wall. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 29 June 2022
