- WA031-026 Burial ground
Description
Situated in pasture on low-lying ground on the N bank of a small E-W stream, c. 100m from its confluence with the Colligan River, which here is a tidal mud-flat (Wth c. 250m) turning from a W-E direction to a N-S direction c. 2km N of Dungarvan town. It is marked 'Site of Grave Yard' only on the 1840 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. It was known locally as Cill Bheag - the little church - and was reputedly the burial ground of soldiers who died in a local battle (Power 1952, 141). Nothing is visible at ground level. Power, Rev. P. (1952) The placenames of the Decies. (second ed.) Cork University Press. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999).

- WA031-050 Burial ground
Description
According to Power (1952, 133) in Ringaphuca, 'On the left bank of a little stream falling into the Colligan is the traditional site of an early burial ground. An old road crossed the river by a ford at the same spot, and was continued in an easterly direction'. Though Power's description indicates that the burial ground is located towards the western end of the S bank of the stream, as indicated by the position of the ford on the 25-inch OS map, the precise location of this burial ground is unknown and there was no visible trace at ground level when inspected in 1990. Also there is a possibility that Power was confusing this burial ground with the burial ground (WA031-026----) immediately N of the stream and this reference may in fact relate to that burial ground. The location indicated here should only be considered as indicative of the general area described by Power. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly, Paul Walsh Date of revised upload: 21 February 2017
