## Designated sites (National Parks and Wildlife Service)

- Proposed Natural Heritage Area: Tassan Lough, site code 001666

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

- MO014-027: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMO014-027----. Located towards the bottom of a gentle SE-facing slope. This was described in 1968 (SMR file) as a circular grass-covered area (diam. 43.4m NE-SW; 40m NW-SE) with rock outcrop and quarry mounds in the interior. It was defined by an earthen bank (at W: Wth of base 3.1m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 0.7m) with some bushes that had an outer field bank built outside it W-N-E-SSW. There was no visible fosse and there were wide gaps used by farm machinery at SSE (Wth of base 1.5m) and WNW (Wth of base 1.9m). Archaeological testing (07E1161) immediately to the SE produced no related material (Russell 2008), but the monument was removed by farm buildings after 2012 (OSAP). 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 26 February 2018 Amended: 16 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).

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

---

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.
