Recorded monuments

• GA118-018 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a rise in pastureland. Marked on the OS 1:2500 plan (surveyed 1912-16) as a bivallate circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m); an enclosed mixed tree plantation extended around it from NW to SE, the latter is not shown on the 1946 revision of the 6-inch map. No visible surface trace survives and a silage pit and sheds occupy the interior. The cartographic evidence suggests that this was probably a ringfort.

• GA118-022 Designed landscape feature
  Description

  In undulating grassland. Marked on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a roughly rectangular enclosed mixed tree plantation (c. 56m N-S; c. 29m E-W) and on the 1946 revision of the map as an oval enclosure (c. 60m N-S; c. 40m E-W). No visible surface trace survives. According to the landowner, the enclosing bank was bulldozed in the late 1970s. No visible surface trace survives. The cartographic evidence suggests that this was most likely an enclosed tree copse and not an archaeological monument.
