• ME043-003 Enclosure
  Description

  Located at the summit of a broad hill. A large circular enclosure (diam. c. 55m), slightly truncated by field banks at S and W is represented on the 1836 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as ‘Derrypatrick Fort’, and it is represented as a D-shaped hachured feature defined by straight field banks at S and W on the 1912 edition. This is a raised rectangular and grass-covered area (dims 43m E-W; 35m N-S) but with no visible fosse or entrance. 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 21 August 2019

• ME043-010 Church
  Description

  Situated on a slight E-W ridge in a low-lying landscape. A church at Kiltale and Derrypatrick is listed in the ecclesiastical taxation (1302-04) of Pope Nicholas IV, (Cal. doc. Ire., 5, 255). The church was amongst the possessions of St Thomas’ Augustinian abbey (DU018-020051-) in 1540 (White 1943, 31). Ussher (1622) describes the church at Dirpatricke as reasonably repaired but the chancel as a ruin (Erlington 1847-64, 1, lxxx). According to the Dopping (1682-5) and Royal (1693) visitations the walls of the church and chancel of St Patrick’s were still standing but it had been unroofed since 1641 (Ellison 1972, 5). The parish church is within a D-shaped graveyard (dims c. 28m NE-SW; c. 28m NW-SE) with straight sides at SE where there is a NE-SW public road, and SW. It is defined by masonry walls on every side except the SW where there is an earthen bank or scarp, which suggests that it may have been truncated on this side. The few headstones are of 18th and 19th century date. The grass covered foundations of a divided nave (int. dims 14.75m E-W; 5.95m N-S) and chancel (int. dims 6.25m E-W; W 5.3m N-S) church survive as wall-footings, a scarp, or a low grass-covered bank (Wth 2m; H 0.4-0.7m). A bullaun stone (dims 0.55m x 0.55m; H 0.26m plus) with a single basin (diam. 0.31m; D 0.22m) is set in the ground in the chancel. There is a spandrel from an ogee-headed window in the graveyard and two similar pieces are set in the graveyard wall at the roadside beside the gate. 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 23 March, 2015

• ME043-011 House - 16th/17th century
  Description

  A roofless gabled structure is depicted adjacent to the church at Dirpatrick (26) on the Down Survey (1656-8) barony map of Deece (http://downsurvey.tcd.ie/). According to the Civil Survey (1654-6) Walter Plunkett of Dirpatrick owned 175 acres there in 1640 including ‘an old stone house, a park of trees and some thatched houses’ (Simington 1940, 142). The house is depicted as an oblong structure (dims c. 15m NW-SE; c. 5m NE-SW) with a rectangular enclosure (dims c. 25m NE-SW; c. 25m NW-SE) attached to the NE on the 1836 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and it is located on a low E-W ridge. A raised rectangular and grass-covered area (dims 8.5m E-W; 6.5m N-S; max. H c. 2m) marks the site of the house. It is situated at the NW angle of a large enclosure or bawn (dims c. 50m N-S; c. 30m E-W) defined on all sides except the N by earthen banks (at W: Wth 8m; H 0.8-1m) and external fosses or hollow ways (at S: Wth of top 5.5m; D 0.5m). The field system (ME043-012----) extended around the house E-S-W but all the remains were removed c. 2013 (Bing). The parish church of Derrypatrick (ME043-010----) is c. 60m to the N.

• ME043-012 Field system
  Description

  Located on the S-facing slope of a low E-W ridge. The house (ME053-011----) and possible bawn (ME043-011001-) were at the N edge of a field system that covered about 30 acres (c. 7.5 ha). The fields were rectangular (dims c. 60-100m x c. 40m) defined by earthen banks and silted drains, with some hollow ways (Wth c. 4-5m; D 0.5m) between the field banks. All the earthwork remains were removed c. 2013 (Bing). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987).
