Located at the crest of the W-facing slope of a drumlin. A church at Ardagh is listed as a chapel-of-ease to Nobber in the visitations of Ussher (1622) (Erlington 1847-64, 1, xcvii) and Dopping (1682-5) (Ellison 1973, 4). By the 19th century it had become a parish, probably when a church was built in 1805 (Lewis 1837, 1, 41). Cogan (1862-70, 2, 294-5) says it was dedicated to St Patrick. This church is now visible as a sunken area (dims 11.2m NW-SE; 8.5m NE-SW), but another structure described as 'in ruins' on the 1836 ed. of the OS 6" map is at the N angle of the subrectangular graveyard (dims c. 48m NW-SE; c. 25-35m NE-SW) defined by stone-faced earthen banks with trees. This building orientated NW SE (int. L 7.7m. int. Wth 3.7m) is unlikely ever to have been a church and has no diagnostic features. A small bullaun stone that was in the graveyard in 1984 is missing as is a possible font that has a faceted stem (diam. 0.3m; H 0.25m) expanding into a damaged basin (D 0.12m) but there was no drain-hole. The crude base of a cross or a boulder (dims 0.6m x 0.45m; H c. 0.4m) supporting a stoup (dims c. 0.28m x 0.28m; H 0.28m) that was in the laneway to the S is also missing. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

Depicted as a large building (dims c. 10m x c. 10m) on the 1836 ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as Ardagh Castle in ruins. It is situated at the crest of an E-facing slope in an area with grass-covered quarries. The entire parish of Ardagh was owned by the Lord of Slane in 1640, including 114 acres in the Manor of Ardagh, but the name of any tenant is not recorded (Simington 1940, 369-71). One wall (L 8m; Wth 1.2m; H 1m) survives oriented NE-SW with traces of it extending further to the NE (L c. 16m). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987).

Located towards the top of an E-facing slope with rock outcrop. It is depicted as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35-40m) only on the 1836 ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘Fort’. This is an overgrown area (diam. c. 60m E-W) with no evidence of an enclosing feature unless it is incorporated into a field bank W-NE.
