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

- MA030-044: Standing stone, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA030-044----. In an area of undulating grassland, on the outskirts of Ballina Town, prominently sited on top of a knoll, overlooking the valley of the River Moy to W, with excellent views of Nephin and the Nephin Beg range in the distance to SW. There is a spring/area of wet ground at the base of the slope to SW. This standing stone is not shown on the 1837 OS 6-inch map, but is indicated and named ‘Standing Stone’ on the 1930 edition. An upright, pillar-like stone (H 2.5m; Wth 0.7m, 0.55m at top; T 0.26-0.36m), with a rectangular cross-section. It narrows slightly towards the top, which gives it a slightly ‘shouldered’ appearance. It leans gently to N, and is encircled by a few small stones, and by a slight depression, probably the result of farm stock using the stone as a scratching post. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 16 April 2018
- MA031-006: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA031-006----. In average pasture, on a terrace on the gentle S-facing slope of a knoll. Good views to E, restricted by rising ground to N and by trees to S. This monument is shown as a circular ringfort-sized enclosure (diam. 25-30m) on the 1837-8 and 1922 OS 6-inch maps. It has been levelled, and a modern house partly overlies the location. The house stands on a platform that may partly reflect the original outline of the enclosure. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 13 June 2018

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).

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

---

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.
