Recorded monuments

• MA038-083 Enclosure
  Description

  In average pasture, adjacent to the townland boundaries at the NW corner of the townland, located on a ridge, with extensive views especially to SE and to W where there is a natural fall of ground. This rath is shown on the 1838 and 1922 OS 6-inch maps as a circular enclosure (diam. 25-30m), incorporated into a field boundary on its NE arc. It has been levelled, but the NE half of its original circuit is preserved in a curving, overgrowth-covered scarp (H 1.2m), which now serving as a property fence. A barely discernible undulation curving S–NW is all that is evident of the SW half of the rath. There is a rath (MA038-082----) c. 90m to NNE, and a possible rath (MA038-084----) c. 150m to SSW.

• MA038-085 Enclosure
  Description

  In pasture, on top of a small knoll, named ‘Knockcahill’ on the 1838 and 922 OS 6-inch maps. The knoll has a pronounced slope to S and E. It overlooks areas of wettish ground to N and S–SW. This enclosure encompasses the summit of the knoll. It consists of a roughly circular raised area (12.8m ENE–WSW; c. 10m NNW–SSE) defined WSW–NE by an earthen scarp (H 1.5-1.7m), quite vertically cut, and topped in parts with a low internal rim (Wth 1.7m) of earth and stone; elsewhere the scarp is levelled, merging seamlessly with the sloping sides of the knoll. Hawthorn trees grow on the scarp at N. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 1 August 2019
