Designated sites

Recorded monuments
- MA038-047 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture, located on a slight rise, in an area of rolling limestone grassland bordered 100m to NW by the Deel River. This possible rath (diam. c. 30m) is shown on the 1838 and 1922 OS 6-inch maps as a circular enclosure, incorporated on the S arc into a field boundary. The enclosing bank on the N half has been levelled, but the original curve is discernible at NNW–SE as a slight rise or undulation. At SSE–NW the bank has been replaced by or modified to serve as an earth and stone field fence (Wth 1.7m; H 0.7m), which respects the original curve of the enclosure. The original interior area is flat and featureless, and under grass. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 25 July 2019
- MA038-048 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture in the SW corner of a modern field, located on a rise in sharply undulating terrain, close to the townland boundary at the S limit of the townland. Raised circular area (diam. c. 25m) defined by a bank, and enclosed by a fosse with remnants of an external bank. The inner bank (Wth 4-6m; int. H 0.2-0.4m; ext. H 1.8m at ENE, 2m at W) is largely to an earthen scarp with a broad external slope, topped by a low internal rim of earth and stones. The fosse (Wth c. 4m) is evident as a shallow depression. The external bank (Wth 3.4m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 0.4m) can be traced at NW–SSE as a low stony rise, but is largely truncated at S–SW by two intersecting E–W and N–S property fences. There is a break (Wth 2m) in the inner bank at SE. The interior is covered by a thicket of hazel and brambles. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 25 July 2019
