Recorded monuments

• TS080-009 Sheepfold
  Description

  On a slight break of a SW-facing slope on an otherwise fairly steep slope. In rough upland pasture, the ground outside the sheepfold is quite waterlogged and reedy. The interior is dry and flat and has been planted with conifers, ash and sycamore.There is an abandoned farmhouse 100m to the N. A sub-circular enclosure (int. dims. 16.2m NE-SW; 18.9m NW-SE) of quite crude sandstone dry-stone wall construction (T 1-1.5m; H 1.5-1.7m), typical of late 18th/19th century fieldwalls. The entrance (Wth 0.9m) in the NNW quadrant facing the farmhouse, is currently blocked with stones. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS080-019 Hut site
  Description

  Rectangular hut site built into the SW-facing slope of Knockeenatoung (601m). Hut site (TS080-020----) 430m to N. Depicted as a building on the 1st ed. OSi 6-inch map Listed as Coolagarranroe 1 (Costello 2016, 98; Costello 2016, 311) and described as a rectangular-hut site (ext. dims. 7m x 4.25m; int. dims. 1.8m x 2.9m) aligned E-W. The E end wall is effectively a revetment against the slope as a result. There appears to be an entrance in the S wall of the building. There is a clear internal dividing wall, which creates two rooms, the eastern (dims. 3.2m x 2.95m) being the larger (W room dims. 1.8m x 2.9m). The floor level of the latter is higher (as one would expect given its position higher up the slope). It is not possible to say whether the internal division interlocks with the N wall, due to the extensive heather and moss growth along with some earth, which appears to form part of the building material. The stonework is most obvious in the S wall of the E room, where coursing of small to medium-sized blocks is evident. There is much stone collapse in and around the building. Flanking the building on the N and S are two substantial earthen banks which presumably were formed by up-cast during the cutting-out of a space for the building. They probably also acted as wind-breaks. There are some unclear stony features outside the W end of the building which may be the remains of a lean-to outbuilding.

• TS080-020 Hut site
  Description

  Rectangular hut site built into the SW slope of Knockeenatoung (601m) with hut site (TS080-019----) 430m to S. Listed by Costello (2016, 98; 2016, 312) as Coolagarranroe 2 and described as a rectangular-hut site (ext. dims. 6m x 3.75m; int. dims. 3.8m x 2.6m) aligned NE-SW with entrance in centre of S wall (int. H 1.1m; ext. H 0.45m; Wth 0.45m) facing downslope. This structure does not, however, have an internal division. The W wall of the building is difficult to define due to accumulated wall tumble either side of it. The N wall is built up against the slope. There is a probable trackway upslope of the building, a short section (1m) of which is revetted with stone. This leads to an area of former peat-cutting at higher altitude. Cultivation ridges are visible downslope to the SW of the building. They are bounded on the N by an earthen bank running cross-slope – presumably to prevent run-off from flooding the ridges (Costello 2020, 126).

• TS080-021 Hut site
  Description

  Sub-circular stone hut located in cut-away bog on a high plateau Listed as Coolagarranroe 3 (Costello 2016) and described as a poorly preserved sub-circular hut site (ext. dims. 4.35 x 3.5m; int. dims. 1.7m x 1.4m) defined a low collapsed walls (avg. H 0.6m) (Costello 2016, 98; Costello 2016, 313). The walls are totally collapsed and not easily defined. A low point in the S wall may have been the entrance. None of the stones are dressed and there is no evidence of coursing whatsoever. No good grazing in the vicinity so doubtful if it was used as a booley hut, at least not in post-medieval period.

• TS080-022 Hut site
  Description

  Listed as Coolagarranroe 4 (Costello 2016, 98; Costello 2016, 313). A rectangular stone hut (ext. dims. 8.1m x 4.5m; int. dims. 6.4m x 2.8m; avg. wall H 0.6m; Wth 0.9m) aligned NW-SE, located in a steep-sided valley, with its W side wall built up against the slope. It has no obvious entrance, but one might have been located in the W end of the S end wall. There are masses of tumbled stone throughout the interior, and particularly in the N end. Nevertheless, one face of an internal dividing wall in the S of the building is discernible. The masonry of the building is coursed, with small to medium-sized and occasionally cut stones predominating. Externally, wall height and width is often obscured due to the amount of tumbled stone on the N and E of the hut. Some of this may also be upcast material from the levelling of a building surface and/or buttressing of the walls facing downslope. The foundation stones of a possible wall run downslope for approximately 6m from the centre of the E side wall. It may have formed part of a small enclosure because another, even less distinct wall can be made out running downslope from the S end of the building (Costello 2020, 122). There are several intersecting trackways running along the valley both upslope and downslope of this building.

• TS086-034 Earthwork
  Description

  On a SW-facing slope in rolling pasture. Monument identifed on aerial photograph (GSI May 1977 R.597/6) as a possible circular earthwork. It appears as a roughly circular (diam. c. 33m), slightly raised area. It may be a levelled earthwork. There is no visible evidence above ground of an enclosing bank or fosse.
