- ME043-033 Ringfort - rath
Description
Located at the crest of a N-facing slope. This is an oval grass-covered area (dims 50m N-S; c. 42m E-W) that slopes down to the NW. It is defined by an earthen bank (at SE: Wth of base 9m; int. H 1.4m; ext. H 1.3m) and a rounded fosse (at SE: Wth of base c. 1m; Wth of top 9m; ext. D 1m) that is absent W-N where the bank (Wth of base 9m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 2.1m) barely reses over the interior and the fosse is not visible. There is a large gap (Wth of base 5.6m) at NE that is probably the original 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: 26 August 2019 Amended: 24 March 2023
- ME043-037 Church
Description
Situated on a slight E-facing slope. The chapel at Dramlargan is amongst the possessions of St Peter's priory at Newtown Trim (ME036-049003-) at the Suppression in 1540 (White 1943, 295). Ussher (1622) describes the church and chancel as ruinous (Erlington 1847-64, 1, lxxix). The church at Drumlargan is listed by Dopping (1682-5) as a chapel-of-ease to Galtrim (ME043-001----), and he describes the church and chancel as ‘down’ and the graveyard was not enclosed (Ellison 1972, 5, 6). Cogan (1862-70, 2, 385) says the graveyard was ‘only lately enclosed.’ The overgrown W wall (L 6.4m; T 0.9m; H c. 4m) of the parish church with the remains of a narrow window survives in the neglected sub-oval graveyard (dims c. 60m NE-SW; c. 45m NW-SE) defined by masonry walls. The E end of the church may be provided 10.5m to the E of the gable by a N-S pit (L 7m; Wth of top 3.2m; D to W 0.2m; D to E 0.7m) with a mound (Wth c. 4m; H at E 0.7m) to the E. The few headstones date from c. 1784 to c. 1908. The graveyard is within a larger ecclesiastical enclosure (diam. c. 170m) defined by a scarp and slight traces of an external ditch E-S, and by a curving road NW-NE, but it has been curtailed by a NW-SE field bank at SW. Burials were found in the W part of the larger enclosure in 1982 (SMR file). Archaeological testing (04E0745) on the line of the perimeter at NE failed to produce any related material (Duffy 2007). 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: 24 March 2015
- ME043-037001 Graveyard
Description
Situated on a slight E-facing slope. The parish church of Drumlargan (ME043-037----) is within a neglected sub-oval graveyard (dims c. 60m NE-SW; c. 45m NW-SE) defined by masonry walls, with scrub on the perimeter. The graveyard was not enclosed in the late 17th century, according to Dopping (1682-5) (Ellison 1972, 6), and Cogan (1862-70, 2, 385) says it was only 'lately enclosed. The few headstones date from c. 1784 to c. 1908, but the graveyard is within a larger ecclesiastical enclosure (ME043-037002-).Archaeological testing (04E0745) by C. Duffy c. 90m to the NE at the closest point and on the likely line of the ecclesiastical enclosure ditch produced no related material (excavations.ie 2004: 1224).

Description
Situated on a slight E-facing slope. The parish church of Drumlargan (ME043-037----) and it s graveyard (ME043-037001-) are within a larger ecclesiastical enclosure (diam. c. 170m) defined by a scarp and slight traces of an external ditch E-S, and by a curving road NW-NE, but it has been curtailed by a NW-SE field bank at SW.

Description
In April 1982 human remains were discovered during deep ploughing in a roughly circular raised area(L 41.5m N-S, Wth 31m E-W). The remains represented at least five individuals. At least two were females and one male. There was at least one adolescent aged 15-16 years and one young adult aged 18-21 years (Cahill & Sikora 2011, vol 2, 395-400).
