• MA071-046 Enclosure
  Description

  Located on a ridge, with a stream 150m to N. Indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a rectangular enclosure bisected centrally on an E−W axis by a road leading to cluster of vernacular houses immediately to SW; shown on the 1931 edition as a subcircular enclosure, hachured on the N arc, bisected by the road. Subcircular raised area (32.8m E−W; 32.3m N−S) defined on the S half by a broad moss- and ivy-covered stone bank (Wth 2.4m; int. H 0.65m; ext. H 0.9m) which serves as a field fence. The perimeter on the N half is difficult to examine due to dense overgrowth: there is a vertical-faced scarp on the NW arc, which merges with a pit/area of disturbance, and on the NE arc the scarp has a gentle slope or slump, incorporating a jumble of loose stones. Outside the scarp on the NE arc there is depression (Wth 2m; D 0.4m), possibly indicating a fosse –it cannot be traced elsewhere. A road (Wth 2.7m) cuts through the centre of the enclosure. The N half of the rath interior (i.e. to N of road) appears to be at a slightly lower level than the S half. The road is flanked on the N side by a low drystone wall (Wth 1.2m; H 0.4m) and on the S side by inward-facing, stone-clad scarp. The road leads W to a cluster of derelict vernacular buildings, farm sheds and a modern house. The perimeter is ringed with ash and blackthorn trees and brambles, particularly dense on the N half. The interior in the N half is covered in brambles and nettles; the S half is under long grass. A farm track skirts the NW arc of the enclosure. There is a rath (MA071-047----) 50m to SE.

• MA071-047 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, located on a ridge with good views along a small stream valley 200m to N. Overlooked by a higher ridge to S. Slightly raised oval area (45.7m N−S; c. 51m E−W) defined by a bank/scarp and enclosed by a fosse with an external bank. The bank (Wth 2.6m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 1.1m at E) is well defined at NE−SSE, retaining a low inner slump. It is reduced to a scarp (H 1.1m at W) at S−W and is levelled at W−NNE to a low rise. The fosse (Wth 3m) can be traced at E−NW, with a field wall skirting its outer edge of the fosse at SW−S. The external bank (Wth 3.4m; int. H 1m; ext. H 0.9m at W) survives only at S−W, and is topped by a thin layer of stones. A field wall crosses the W half of the interior on a NW−SE axis, and a perpendicular wall extends from this to SW through the NW quadrant. Hazel, hawthorn and blackthorn grow thickly on the rath perimeter at NE−W. A tractor track crosses the fosse and scarp at SSW, continuing N into the rath interior; a section (L 10m) of the external bank has been levelled here. There is an enclosure (MA071-046----) 50m to NW. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 22 July 2021
