• ME018-021 Souterrain
  Description

  Located at the summit of a broad hill. A souterrain is described as a ‘Cave’ in gothic lettering only on the 1836 edition of the OS 6-inch map but no description is available. It is visible as a the cropmark of a trench (L c. 20m; Wth c. 3m) extending from inside the bank of rath (ME018-021001-) at E to the centre only on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during 2018. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 30 January 2018

• ME018-021001 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Located at the summit of a broad hill. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (int. diam. c. 58m N-S; c. 55m E-W) defined by a fosse (Wth c. 2-4m) that is absent WSW-WNW and ESE-S is visible only on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during 2018. The souterrain (ME018-021---) can be seen as a cropmark extending W from inside the fosse at E to the centre. The rath was first reported by Anthony Murphy. See the attached enhanced view from Apple Maps Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload; 30 January 2020

• ME018-022 Church
  Description

  Located towards the top of a gentle S-facing slope. A church at Kilbery is listed in the ecclesiastical taxation (1302-06) of Pope Nicholas IV (Cal. doc. Ire. 5, 261). The names of some of the clergy are known (Cogan 1862-70, 1, 349-50). Ussher (1622) describes the church and chancel as reasonably well repaired (Erlington 1847-64, 1, xcii). According to Dopping’s Visitation (1682-5) Kilberry was dedicated to St. John the Baptist, but the church was ‘ruined since (16)41’ (Ellison 1973, 5). The parish church of Kilberry is situated within a D-shaped graveyard (dims c. 90m E-W; c. 70m N-S) defined by masonry walls. The church consists of the S, E and fragments of the N wall of a rectangular structure (ext. dims 14.3mE-W; 7.6m N-S) defined by masonry walls (Wth 1-1.2m; ext. H 1.5-2m). The E jamb of a doorway in the S wall with a keel-moulding is the only visible feature and the interior is filled with cairn material, while the present fragment of the W wall (T 0.6m) is probably a modern one. A rectangular limestone font (dims 0.68m x 0.62m; H 0.46m) with a circular basin (diam. 0.47m; D 0.26m), which has had two angles chamfered off (Roe 1968, 123) is W of the church. A sandstone graveslab (L 2m; Wth 0.39 0.56m; H 0.15m) is E of the church and has a floriated cross incised with double lines and fleur de lis terminals. A rectangular hole (dims 0.21m x 0.21m) has been cut into the wider end of the slab. Nearby is a tomb chest with a limestone covering slab (L 2.2m; Wth 0.9m; T 0.15m), supported on one side stone and an end-panel (Wth 0.84m; H 0.76m) with a raised crucifixion that has foreshortened legs. The covering slab has a crest at the head, a skull and cross bones at the feet and an inscription commemorating Mathius Everard, who died in 1717 (Lett 1921-25). The tomb was erected by his brother and is probably the tomb described by Butler (1892, 127), writing c. 1740, as being in the graveyard (ME017-034001-) at Donaghpatrick. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 15 December, 2014

• ME018-022001 Graveyard
  Description

  Located towards the top of a gentle S-facing slope. The parish church of Kilberry (ME018-022----) is within a D-shaped graveyard (dims c. 90m E-W; c. 70m N-S) defined by masonry walls. The font (ME018-022002-), graveslab (ME018-022003-) and chest-tomb (ME018-022004-) are within the graveyard. The present graveyard was extended eastwards by a strip (dims c. 60m N-S; c. 25m E-W) since the 1909-10 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 6 June, 2014

• ME018-022002 Font
  Description

  A rectangular limestone font (dims 0.68m x 0.62m; H 0.46m) with a circular basin (diam. 0.47m; D 0.26m), which has had two angles chamfered off (Roe 1968, 123) is W of the church (ME018-022----) within the graveyard (ME018-022001-). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 6 June, 2014

• ME018-022003 Graveslab
  Description

  A sandstone graveslab (L 2m; Wth 0.39-0.56m; H 0.15m) is E of Kilberry parish church (ME018-022----) and has a floriated cross incised with double lines and fleur-de-lis terminals.

• ME018-022004 Tomb - chest tomb
  Description

  Within the graveyard (ME018-022001-) and E of Kilberry parish church (ME018-022----). A limestone chest-tomb has a covering slab (L 2.2m; Wth 0.9m; T 0.15m) that is supported on one side-stone and an end panel (Wth 0.84m; H 0.76m) with a raised crucifixion that has foreshortened legs. The covering slab has a crest at the head, a skull and cross-bones at the feet, and an inscription commemorating Mathius Everard, who died in 1714 or 1715. The tomb was erected by his brother and is probably the tomb described by Butler (1892, 127), writing c. 1740, as being in the graveyard (ME017-034001-) at Donaghpatrick, but the transcription is probably more accurate that that of Lett (1921-25). According to Butler the inscription reads: Mathis Everard departed / this life, 12th day of March / 1714 (15) And by his Will directed / his Brother Christopher / Everard of Randalstown Esqr. / to lay this tomb stone in the / Roome of an Old one that was / defaced in this Church of / Donagh Patrick by time, where / Many of their Ancestors are / interred, for the said Christopher / and his Posterity.
