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

- MA038-044001: Structure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA038-044001-. In pasture, located 15m to N of rath (MA038-044001-). This structure is not indicated on the 1838 and 1922 OS 6-inch map. It was included in the RMP (1997) as an enclosure based on a local survey. It consists of a circular, sunken stone-lined structure (Diam. 7m; D. 1m) enclosed at top by slightly raised rim. Its function is unclear; it appears to be of relatively recent date.

- MA038-044002: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA038-044002-. In rough pasture, located on a prominent rise, from which there is a steep fall of ground to the River Deel which lies 55m to S and marks the townland boundary. The location overlooks a bend in the river, and there are excellent views to SE and SW along the river valley. Named ‘Rathglass’ on the 1838 and 1922 OS 6-inch maps, this rath consists of a raised circular area (25.3m N–S; c. 25m E–W) defined by a bank of earth and stones, and enclosed by a fosse and an external bank, evident now only on the W half. The inner bank (Wth 3.6m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 1.4m, at N) is best preserved at NW–NE, but is reduced elsewhere to a scarp retaining only a slight internal rim; stones protruding along the inner edge may be remnants of a kerb. The fosse is evident at SE–W as a terrace (Wth 1.7m), with a fall of ground on its outer edge; at SE-S the terrace has an almost vertical scarp faced with stones, the result of being incorporated into a later field boundary. At W–NNE the fosse can be traced as a shallow depression (Wth 1.6-2m), and is defined on its outer edge by the external bank, which is reduced to a low, sod-covered rise (Wth 1.6-2m; ext. H 0.2m). The fosse and external bank cannot be traced on the E arc, where remnants of a linear N-S field fence (Wth 1.2m) overlie their line. The NW quadrant appears to be at a slightly higher level than the rest of the interior, which is level. The entrance may have been at SE where there is a gap or break in the bank, now obscured by overgrowth. The perimeter is ringed with thorn bushes, gorse and brambles; the interior is grassy with clumps of ferns and brambles. There is a structure (MA038-044001-) located 15m to N.

- MA038-172: Burnt mound, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA038-172----. Located in rough, damp pasture. A layer (L 6-8m; D 0.3-0.4m) of dark soil mixed with heat-shattered fragments of sandstone and charcoal fragments is visible in an E-facing section of a N-S field drain. A small portion of mound material is also visible in the field fence bordering the E side of the drain. The layer is truncated at the S by a modern causeway/farm track that traverses the drain. There is another burnt mound (MA038-173----) 15m to SW. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 19 August 2019
- MA038-173: Burnt mound, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA038-173----. Located in rough, damp pasture. This possible burnt mound is evident as a slightly raised surface spread (diam c. 6m) of charcoal-rich soil and shattered stone, with a possible further linear spread of burnt material for several meters to SW. Its exact limits are uncertain.A NE-SW field drain lies a few meters to SE. There is a burnt mound (MA038-172----) 15m to NE, a burnt mound (MA038-174----) 20m to SSW, and another (MA038-175---) is located 140m to NE. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 19 August 2019
- MA038-174: Burnt mound, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA038-174----. Located in rough, pasture, on the W edge of an area of wet ground. Gently rising ground to W. This burnt mound has been levelled; it is evident as a surface spread (c. 8m E-W; 6m N-S) of black, charcoal-rich stony soil. The mound is distinguished from the surrounding field surface by a differential growth of grass, but the exact limits are not clear. Another burnt mound (MA038-173----) is located c. 20m to N. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 19 August 2019
- MA038-175: Burnt mound, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA038-175----. In pasture, at base of the NE-facing slope of a low knoll. A NW-SE field drain bordering a road lies immediately to NE. This burnt mound is evident as a roughly oval, grass-covered mound (10m NW-SE; c. 6.5m NE-SW; H 0.5m at NE). It is composed of stone fragments in black soil. The surface of the mound is traversed by relict cultivation furrows on a NE-SW axis. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 19 August 2019

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.
