• TS088-034 Enclosure
  Description

  On an E-facing slope, on a slight break in slope, in rolling pasture. The enclosure has been levelled but is still visible as a circular area (diam. 37m) defined by very gradual scarp (1m H). The monument is depicted as a circular enclosure on both the 1st (1840) and 2nd (1904-05) ed. OS 6-inch map. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 02 December 2013

• TS088-042 Enclosure
  Description

  On a gentle N facing slope in rough upland pasture. Monument appears as circular enclosure on aerial photograph (GSI S 725 May 1977). There are a lot of natural undulations in this field, low ridges and hummocks, no visible remains of an enclosure. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS088-070 Standing stone
  Description

  On a N-facing slope, just off the flat crest of a ridge, at the foot of Knockperry South hill. There are extensive views to the N and W, good to the E and impeded to the S. Large red sandstone standing stone (L 2.37m; 1.1m x 0.5m) rectangular in plan. It is known locally as 'the Bishop' because it narrows towards the top (0.7m x 0.44m) giving the appearance of a head on a larger body. This narrowing appears to be due to weathering, where the stone has cracked and broken off. The stone had fallen over, with the base facing S, and was subsequently re-erected (H 2.12m above ground), giving an orientation NW-SE. There are packing stones at the base on the SE side.

• TS088-082 Souterrain
  Description

  On a NW-facing slope in upland, undulating terrain, in rough pasture. A stream runs N-S 8m W of the souterrain. A ringfort (TS088-083----) is located 7m SE of the S end of the souterrain. There is also a souterrain (TS088-068---) 260m to the NW in the neighbouring townland of Boolahallagh. A souterrain, running N-S, constructed of cream-coloured sandstone drystone-walling with five lintels. The N end of the passage (L 2.85m; Wth 1.3m E-W; H 1.13m) terminates in a curving wall. A the S end there is evidence of collapse suggesting that the souterrain continued southward, this is supported by the evidence above ground, where there is a raised area (H above ext. to W 0.45m) over the passage which runs southward (total L 12.5m) and possibly terminates 7m from the base of scarp of an adjacent ringfort. The souterrain was discovered when a lintel at the N end of the passage broke under the weight of a tractor. There are a lot of loose stones in the interior. The drystone-walling is composed of mainly small stones (average dims. 0.1m x 0.2m) interspersed with some larger stones. The lintels are fairly rectangular (average Wth 0.35; S lintel Wth of 0.6m broadening out to 0.75m to the W; D 0.2-0.3m) and are covered by a 0.25m depth of soil.

• TS088-083 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a NW-facing slope in upland, undulating terrain, in rough pasture. A curving stream runs along the base of the scarp of the monument to the S and W. There is a souterrain (TS088-082----) outside the ringfort, running N-S, 7m from the base of scarp in the NW sector. A circular enclosure (diam. 20.3m N-S; 17.5m E-W to farm trackway) defined by a gentle scarp (H 0.65-0.72m; Wth c. 4m). Though much denuded this enclosure was probably a ringfort as it is closely associated with a souterrain. The E edge of the monument was truncated by a farm trackway built in 1995. The interior slopes with the natural slope to the N. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 13 July 2015

• TS088-084 Fulacht fia
  Description

  In upland marshy terrain, on the W bank of a stream. This fulacht fia is incorporated in a field boundary which runs NW-SE, parallel with a stream which runs along the E side of the boundary. In 1995 the landowner widened a gap in the field boundary when building a bridge over the stream. Burnt mound material, fire-cracked stones and black charcoal-rich soil, was revealed in the exposed face of the field boundary (Wth c. 3.5m; H 0.4-1m) and appears to have extended for c. 1m NW of the exposed face where burnt mound material is evident on the surface, formally at the base of the field boundary.

• TS091-018 Standing stone
  Description

  On a N-facing slope of Knockperry South hill, in rough upland pasture. There are good views in all directions except to the S. Monument identified during ASI fieldwork. A red sandstone standing stone (0.6m x 0.4m; H 2m) lozenge-shaped in plan and orientated NE-SW. The stone, which is quite badly spawled, rises to an apex towards the SW. There are some hummocks at the base of the stone, with some stones on SE side which may be packing stones. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
