- CL015-013 Ringfort - rath
Description
In damp coarse pasture near the top of a low E-facing slope with clear views to the S. Hachured on the 1840 and 1916 eds. OS 6-inch maps. A subcircular rath (31.5m N-S; 30m E-W) defined by a flat-topped earth and stone bank (ext. H 0.35-1m; Wth 2.2-3.6m) and a fosse (Wth 2.4m; D 0.2-0.25m). A gap (Wth 4.6m) at the E may indicate the original entrance. A line of facing stones (L 1m) at the SW of the external bank suggests an original external stone revetment. The interior slopes down gently to the E and has a dense covering of rushes. Compiled by: Mary Tunney and Eve Campbell Date of upload: 21 September 2022
- CL015-121 Enclosure
Description
In pasture on a gentle rise with good views in all directions. Indicated on the 1840 OS 6-inch map as a curving field boundary and known locally. A subcircular enclosure (34m N-S) defined by a scarp (H 2m) NNW-SSE. Bisected by the Lisdoonvarna-Kilshanny road along this axis. To the W of the road only a slight semicircular rise survives and it is piled with field clearance rubble. Large boulders along the wall bordering the road that cuts the monument suggest that it may have been a cashel. Compiled by: Mary Tunney and Eve Campbell Date of upload: 29 October 2025
