Recorded monuments

• WX026-008 Ringfort - unclassified
  Description

  Marked faintly as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 50m) on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated just off the crest of a N-facing slope. It is not visible at ground level in pasture. 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: 12 July 2012

• WX026-083001 Structure
  Description

  Identified in centre-line testing (E4110) in advance of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy road scheme and set aside for resolution as a part of Cooladine 1 (Hardy et al. 2010, 6-7). It is situated on an undulating landscape sloping down to the W where a SE-NW section of a small S-N stream is c. 100m to the SW. An extensive area was excavated (E4162) as Cooladine 1 by Y. Whitty when four concentrated areas of activity and two prehistoric phases were recognised. Most of the features are pits and post-holes but a possible Neolithic structure was identified together with a possible Bronze Age hut-site (WX026-083002-). An intense node of activity consisting of eleven pits and seven post-holes occurred in a confined area (dims c. 10m x c. 10m) at the W edge of the excavated area. No pattern is discernible amongst the post-holes, but they appear to be structural. The pits contained a large quantity of Neolithic pottery and many of the sherds are crudely-made wasters, suggesting the proximity of pottery kilns. The possible Bronze Age hut-site (WX026-083002-) is c. 50m to the SSE, and the hearth (WX026-084----) is c. 180m to the NNW.

• WX026-083002 Hut site
  Description

  Identified in centre-line testing (E4110) in advance of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy road scheme and set aside for resolution as a part of Cooladine 1 (Hardy et al. 2010, 6-7). It is situated on an undulating landscape sloping down slightly to the W where a SE-NW section of a small S-N stream is c. 70m to the SW. A curving slot-trench (Wth 0.45m; D 0.2m; L 8-10m plus) at the S end of the excavated area may have some structural post-holes on its line NW-NE-E but most of the interior was outside the excavated area to the SW. However, it could not be traced with remote sensing techniques. There are two post-holes in the interior, one of which would be central to the structure. The pottery suggests a Bronze Age date. About 65m to the N a possible four-post structure was identified through four post-holes in a square arrangement (dims 1.9-2m N-S; 1.9-2m E-W). The possible Neolithic structure (WX026-083001-) is c. 50m to the NNW. (Hardy and Rajic 2012, 14-5; Whitty 2013; 2013, 234). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 29 November, 2013

• WX026-084 Hearth
  Description

  Identified in centre-line testing (E4110) in advance of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy road scheme and set aside for resolution as Cooladine 2 (Hardy et al. 2010, 8). It is situated on an undulating landscape sloping down to the W where a small S-N stream is c. 120m distant. A hearth was excavated (E4162) by Y. Whitty as a sub-oval area (dims 2.1m x 1.4m; T 0.4m) with seven layers representing two phases of activity separated by a layer of stones. An oval pit (dims 4.2m x 2.26m; D 0.6m) was 17m to the S, and three smaller pits (dims 0.6m x 0.4m; D 0.12m: 0.9m x 0.88m; D 0.25m: 1.16m x 0.9m; D 0.58m) were 4-12m from the large pit. A single piece of flint and three sherds of prehistoric pottery were recovered from the pits. The Neolithic structure (WX026-083001-) is c. 180m to the S. (Hardy 2012; Whitty 2013).

• WX026-096 Enclosure
  Description

  Situated on a gentle W-facing slope. The cropmark of a small oval area (dims c. 25m NE-SW; c. 18m NW-SE) defined by a slight fosse is visible only on Google Earth (14/07/2018). It was first reported by Simon Dowling. See the attached enhanced view from Google Earth Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload; 6 March 2020

• WX026-106 Enclosure
  Description

  Located at the crest of the NW-facing slope of a hill. This is a circular enclosure (diam. c. 55m) defined by a fosse that is only visible N-E-S on iMaps (2022). It is truncated by a N-S field bank at W and is not visible on the W side of this feature. The enclosure was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére.
