Recorded monuments

• ME013-008 Enclosure
  Description

  Situated towards the top of a N-facing slope and almost on the col between Slieve Breagh and another hill to the E. A small circular feature (diam. c. 23m) is lightly indicated on the 1836 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is annotated as a ‘Fort’. Two bushes might mark the W edge of a small earthwork enclosure of which there is no other visible evidence. 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 upload: 10 July 2007 Amended: 3 August 2022

• ME013-010001 Earthwork
  Description

  Located on an E-facing slope that is on the summit of a ENE-WSW ridge. A small circular embanked feature (diam. c. 20m) that is annotated as a ‘Moat’ is depicted on the 1836 edition of the OS 6-inch map. According to John O’Donovan writing in 1836 (Herity 2001, 46) there was a stone called ‘Cloiche Stucaigh’ that was about three and a half feet high (c. 1m) and stood on a small moat, which is this monument. A pattern was held on the 10th of July in honour of it, and the name ‘Stuck Stone’ is now applied to the road junction just to the N. The stone survived until the end of the nineteenth century at least (Cochrane and Rhys 1898, 55 fn), but no trace of the mound or stone survived in 1968 (SMR file) when there was a sand pit at the location. Archaeological testing (05E0196) by P. D. Sweetman c. 150m to the E failed to produce any related material (excavation.ie 2005:1228). Archaeological testing (03E1532) by L. Clarke c. 200m to the S also produced no related material (excavations.ie: 2003:1359). 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 upload: 10 July 2007 Amended: 3 August 2022 and 3 November 2025

• ME013-029 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  Located towards the bottom of a N-facing slope with a small E-W stream c. 70m to the N. A well annotated as ‘Tobernagarran’ in gothic script is depicted on the 1836 and 1908 editions of the OS 6-inch map. Nothing else is known about it, but from aerial imagery it, and from the removal of the field bank where it was located, it would appear to have been removed before 1995 (OSAP).
