Recorded monuments

• MO014-029 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on a slight rise in a low-lying area between drumlins to the W and E. An earthwork enclosure is depicted only on McCrea’s map of County Monaghan (1793) at Terrygeely. Its precise location is not known but no archaeological feature is visible on aerial images (OSI Google, Bing). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 26 February 2018

• MO014-030001 Church
  Description

  Situated at the W end of a prominent E-W drumlin ridge. This is the site of the medieval parish church of Tullycorbet, which is included with Clontibret and Aughanmullen as ‘Plebs de Crichmugdorn’ – the people of Cremone - in the ecclesiastical taxation (1302-06) of Pope Nicholas IV (Shirley 1879, 289). The names of some of the clergy are known from 1415, and in the Royal Visitation of 1622 the church was described as repaired (Leslie 1929, 253-4). The present Church of Ireland church dedicated to St Patrick was built by the Board of First Fruits in 1831 (Lewis 1837, 2, 658), but it was closed by 1907 (OS 6-inch map). The roofless ruin of the present church is in a neglected subrectangular graveyard (max. dims c. 100m NW-SE; c. 40m NE-SW) defined by earthen banks. A corner portion of a gable coping with a carving of a head from the medieval church was noted in 1940 (ITA Survey) and it is probably still present, but its precise location in the overgrown graveyard is not known.
