Recorded monuments

• WX041-037 Church
  Description

  Marked as a roofed, rectangular structure (dims c. 20m E-W; c. 10m N-S) on the 1839 Ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in italic lettering as ‘R.C. Chapel in ruins’. It is situated on a gentle S-facing slope on the E side of a farm lane, with Cleristown castle site (WX041-038----) c. 10m to the N. There are no visible remains of a structure, enclosure or burial at ground level. It may have been a penal or post-penal Roman Catholic church that became disused when a cruciform church was built c. 650m to the N, which is depicted as extant on the 1839 Ed. of the OS 6-inch map or, given its obscure location, it may have served the castle as a chapel. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 19 March, 2013

• WX041-038 Church
  Description

  Marked faintly as a rectangular feature (dims c. 10m E-W; c. 5m N-S) on the 1839 Ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as the site of a castle. It is situated on a slight S-facing slope. References to Devereux of Cleristown, but not to a castle, date from 1543 (Jeffrey 1979, 70 71), and while John Devereux owned 480 acres at Cleristown in 1640 together with 580 acres at Sleedagh, Blackmoor, Norristown and Pollmanagh in Kilmannan parish, there is no mention of a castle at Cleristown in the Civil Survey (1654-6) (Simington 1953, 136-7). There are no visible remains of a structure at ground level. The church site (WX041-037---) is c. 10m to the S. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996).

• WX046-010 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Located on a slight N-S spur with N-S streams c. 480m to the E and c. 420m to the SW. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 39m) defined by an earthen bank, best preserved (Wth c. 3m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 2.3m) in a field bank NE-SW, and an external fosse (Wth c. 4m; D 0.5m). From SW-W-NE the bank is reduced to a scarp (H c. 0.4m) with an outer silted fosse (Wth of top c. 5m). There is no visible entrance. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996).
