No designated site (Special Area of Conservation, Special Protection Area, Natural Heritage Area or proposed one) touches the townland of Drumlane.

## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- MO024-023: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO024-023----. Located at the tip of a short N-S spur on the S side of a NW-SE drumlin ridge. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 37.5m NW-SE; 35m NE-SW) defined by an earthen bank (at SE: Wth of base c. 4m; int. H 1.5m; ext. H 2.7m) and an outer fosse, with an outer field bank SSW-N-E. The entrance (Wth of base 2.5m) is at SE. By 1995 much of the perimeter had been removed W-N-S (OSAP). Archaeological testing (98E0499) for the line of an E-W water pipe c. 50m N of the monument produced no related material (Byrne 2000). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 9 May 2018
- MO024-024: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO024-024----. Located on a shoulder of the SE-facing spine of a NW-SE drumlin ridge. This was described in 1968 as an overgrown circular area (diam. 41m NNW-SSE; 38m ENE-WSW) defined by an earthen bank at NW, which was largely reduced to a scarp (at NE: H 1.8m) with an outer fosse at NW across the spine of the ridge. There were many gaps in the bank but the original entrance was not identified. The SW part of the monument had been removed by 1995 (OSAP). Archaeological monitoring (98E0500) within 50m of the rath produced no related material (Byrne 2000). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 9 May 2018

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
