Recorded monuments

• LI011-045 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In farmyard, on break in W-facing slope. Monument, depicted as embanked circular enclosure on 1923 OS 6-inch map, has been engulfed within farmyard complex. A roughly circular area (diam. 28m E-W) can be discerned, defined S->N by scarped edge which appears to be natural break in slope. From NE->E area skirted by artificially raised horse-training paddock, from E->SE a fence defines area, and SE->S it is bordered by a farm shed. Interior area under grass and slopes down to W. It is unclear what if anything of original site survives. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• LI011-047 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on N-facing slope; immediately NW of farmyard. Oval area (24.6m N-S; 31.5m E-W) enclosed by earthen bank (int. H 0.9m; ext. H 2.65m) and external fosse (D 1m; Wth 1.7m). Bank is best preserved SW->N, but has been lowered by erosion N->ESE. Bank and fosse removed SE->SSW to allow access to interior from farmyard. Fosse is best preserved along W arc, but is truncated by field walls at SSW and NNE. Level interior, covered by mature deciduous trees, is now used as domestic dump, particularly SW quadrant. A narrow trench (6.5m N-S; 1.1m E-W; D 0.6m) at SE corner of interior is probably associated with farmyard. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• LI011-048 Enclosure
  Description

  In pasture, on gentle S-facing slope. Monument, depicted on 1923 OS 6-inch map as ovoid enclosure (c. 30m E-W; c. 40m N-S), has been levelled except for section of enclosing earth-and-stone bank (int. H 0.35m) W->NE. This forms part of field boundary system; a dry-stone field wall runs along external face of bank and continues as linear boundary to SW and E. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• LI011-050 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on gentle SW-facing slope. Roughly circular area (22.3m N-S; 20.6m E-W) defined by scarped edge (H 0.4m; Wth 4.6m), best preserved NNE->E and SW->NW. A slight dip (D 0.2m) immediately to W of scarp, with low rise (H 0.15m) running along its outer edge, is probably natural feature. Interior is under pasture except for S half which is covered with briars. Immediately N of enclosure is area of limestone outcrop. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
