Recorded monuments

• CL008-042 Enclosure
  Description

  On a hilltop in reclaimed pastureland with wide views in all directions. Hachured on the 1842 and 1920 eds. of the OS 6-inch map. A flat level grassy platform (27.2m E-W; 23.2m N-S) is defined by a scarp (H 0.25-0.45m). From E-SE a vague earthen mound (Wth 2m; H 0.1m) suggests the former presence of an enclosing bank. At NW a few limestone uprights (L 4.2m) along the edge of the scarp, may be either the remains of a stone-lined bank or some field-clearance rubble. At S, a D-shaped platform (10m E-W; 9m N-S) extends off the enclosure. It may be an associated or natural feature, or the result of recent field clearance.

• CL008-114 Fulacht fia
  Description

  In undulating rough pastureland with limestone outcrops with wide views to S-W and within an extensive multiperiod field system (CL009-001001-). Not listed in the SMR (1992) or the RMP (1996). Thought locally to be a fulacht fiadh, this site comprises a subcircular area (16.5m N-S; 14.5m E-W) defined by a broad, low bank (Wth 3-9m; int. H 0.4-0.6m; ext. H 0.2-0.5m) of earth and stone, but no evidence of burnt stone was visible when inspected in 1998. The sunken, nettle-covered interior (6m E-W; 4.5m N-S) is lower (D c. 0.5m) than the surrounding ground outside. Summary by: Gearóid Conroy and Conn Herriott Date of upload: 5 December 2022
