## Designated sites (National Parks and Wildlife Service)

- Proposed Natural Heritage Area: Monalty Lough, site code 001608

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

- MO031-083: Crannog, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO031-083----. Situated in the oval Moynalty Lough (dims c. 950m NW-SE; c. 150-400m) that is now reduced to two smaller lakes. The crannog is close to the W shore of the large S part (dims c. 600m NW-SE; c. 400m NNE-SW) of the lake. The crannog is an overgrown island (diam. c. 25-30m; H c. 1m) surrounded by reeds, which make access impossible. Numerous objects from the Shirley collection, now in the National Museum of Ireland, are recorded as coming from a crannog at Moynalty Lough (Lucas 1968). They include three bronze daggers, a razor, a chape from a scabbard, two harp pegs, and various bronze pins. There were also four glass and four amber beads, a glass and a bronze bracelet, a Viking sword, two bronze buckles, numerous iron rods, and sherds of pottery. (Anon. 1862-3, 379) 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. Date of revision: 31 July 2017
- MO031-132: Excavation - miscellaneous, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO031-132----. Discovered prior to road construction (Excavation Licence No. 03E1298). Excavation revealed a circular charcoal filled pit (diam. 2m; D 0.6m). (Coughlan 2004c; Coughlan T. 2006, 403) Date of upload: 14 April 2011
- MO031-139: Road - hollow-way, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO031-139----. Located on a slight N-facing slope down to a small canalized WSW-ENE stream (L c. 400m) connecting Lough Naglack just to the W with Moynalty Lough c. 400m to the E. The line of an old road is depicted faintly on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map approaching Broken Bridge from the S while the present line is depicted running parallel with it just to the W. A hollow way (L c. 200m) is visible as a sunken area (Wth of top c. 4.5m; Wth of base 2.75m; D 0.6-0.75m) with a straight edge on the W side running S-N towards the bridge, which is probably an eighteenth century structure with one arch (Coughlan 2003, Fig. 22, Pl. 17). Archaeological testing (02E1212) in four trenches across the N end of the hollow way showed topsoil (D 0.15-0.2m) lying directly on subsoil and produced no datable material (Coughlan 2009, 6-7). Much of the hollow way survives undisturbed in a wood bordering the E side of the present by-road. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 14 January 2020

Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12).

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.
