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

- MA092-002: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA092-002----. In pasture, located on a rise with very good views of the surrounding undulating landscape, with higher ground to S and NW and a lowlying expanse of boggy land to SE. A broadly oval platform (38m NW–SE; c. 43m NE–SW) defined at SE–NW by a scarp (H 1.3m). Outside the scarp on the W arc there is slight evidence of a fosse (Wth c. 3.5m), defined on its outer edge at SW–W by a field bank (Wth 2-2.4m; H 1.4m) which partly respects the curve of the fosse and may preserve the line of an original outer bank. A slight rise outside the fosse at NW may also be a levelled outer bank. The NE half of the interior has been entirely quarried out to a depth of c. 2m below original interior surface level, with access gained through a 15m break in the scarp at NNW–N. The E edge of the quarry pit is defined by a raised rim (Wth 3.5-4m; ext. H 0.7m) curving NNE−ESE which may preserve the original perimeter of the enclosure. A later field boundary on a NE–SW axis lies immediately to S of the enclosures, slightly truncating the enclosing scarp. Grass cover. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 17 February 2022

Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12).

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.
