Recorded monuments

• LF013-014 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a NW-facing slope c. 150m to the S of the Camlin River. Depicted as the E half of a rectangular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A raised circular area (diam. 35.8m) enclosed by a narrow low bank of earth and stone (Wth 2.8m; H 0.4m max.), which has been levelled from ESE-SE-S and from NW-N-NNE. The outline of the latter section is still evident. There is no trace of a fosse. A report in 1975 (SMR file) suggested that the original entrance may have been at S. It is no longer identifiable. The interior, which is heavily waterlogged, slopes appreciably from SE-NW. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• LF014-003 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a low rise in poor rushy pasture. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A circular area (diam. 26.7m) enclosed from SE-S-NW by a largely levelled bank of earth and stone (Wth 3.8m; H 0.2m). Elsewhere the bank has been modified and incorporated into a field boundary with an external fosse. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• LF014-004 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a low rise in pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 51.5m) enclosed by a partially levelled low bank of earth and stone (Wth 5m; H 0.3m max.) with a wide, deep, partially waterlogged intervening fosse (Wth 6.3m; D 1.3m) and a very wide, low outer bank (Wth 9.9m; H 1.1m) from ESE–S–NW. Elsewhere this bank has been levelled but its outline is still identifiable. There is also an outer fosse (Wth c. 4.5m) of which only the outline is visible. The original entrance is not recognisable. The rath is densely overgrown with vegetation rendering satisfactory inspection impossible. Compiled by: Patrick F.
