Recorded monuments

• KD013-015 Moated site
  Description

  On level, low-lying, wet pasture. A very poorly preserved, rectangular area (int. dims. L c. 40m NW-SE; Wth c. 30m) is defined by a low, broad, inner earthen bank (Wth 4.3-6.7m; int H 0.2-0.5m; ext H 2.1-2.6m) SSE-SW-NNW which is reduced to a scarp (H 1.2-2.1m) elsewhere, and by a much altered fosse; dug out SE-W-N (Wth 8m at N-18m at W; D 0.6-1.4m), and partially infilled along E where it is overlain by a modern farm track (Wth 4m). The interior is totally overgrown with thorn and briar. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011

• KD013-040 Enclosure
  Description

  Cropmark of circular-shaped enclosure (approx. diam. 31m) with entrance gap at N visible on Google earth aerial imagery. See attached images taken from Google Earth aerial photographs taken 28/06/2018 Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 28 May 2019

• KD014-001 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a very gentle NW-facing pasture slope. A small, poorly preserved, circular area (diam. 24m) is defined by a low, earthen bank (Wth 2.6-3.8m; int. H 0.4-0.6m; ext. H 0.8-1m) NW-NE-SE, partly hedged as a field boundary NE-E-SE, and abutted externally along N by a landscaped garden. A possible entrance on the N side, noted in 1972 (SMR file), is no longer clearly identifiable. The interior slopes gently down to NW and contains a coppiced hazel stand. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011

• KD014-002 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a very gentle S-facing tillage slope, with two enclosures (KD014-003---- and KD014-004----) immediately to the SE and a third, very large enclosure (KD014-009----) immediately to the N. Described in 1985 as 'a circular platform (diam. 17m; H c. 1m) with traces of a bank at the S and W' (SMR file). The site has subsequently been ploughed out, and while deep potato drills run E-W across the monument, some sub-surface remains may survive intact. (CUCAP AVO 83; AVR 9. 1968). Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011

• KD014-003 Enclosure
  Description

  In open, level, mixed pasture and tillage, with a rath (KD014-002----) and two enclosures, (KD014-004---- and KD014-009----) upslope immediately to the NW of the monument. A 1968 aerial photograph (CUCAP AVO 83) shows a large oval area (est. max. diams c. 90m N-S; c. 60 E-W) defined by a broad fosse which is incorporated into a later field boundary WNW-N-ENE. This curving boundary survives as a broad, recut, E-flowing stream (Wth 3.2m; D 1.8m) with a low, narrow, hedged, earthen bank (Wth 1.6m; H 0.2m) on its S side. The field immediately to the S is under pasture and there is no visible surface trace of the rest of the monument but sub-surface features may survive intact. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011

• KD014-004 Enclosure
  Description

  In tillage at the S foot of a very gentle, S facing slope. A rath (KD014-002----) and an enclosure (KD014-009----) lie immediately to the N and there is a third enclosure (KD014-003----) immediately to the SE. Aerial photographs (CUCAP AVO 83, 84. 1968) show the cropmark of a fosse defining an oval area (est. diam. c. 30m), now ploughed over and sown with potatoes, leaving no visible surface trace, although sub-surface features may survive intact. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011

• KD014-005 Earthwork
  Description

  On a gentle S facing pasture slope. Not recorded on the 1st ed. (1838) of the OS 6-inch map, but shown on the latest ed. (1939) as a tree-clad, semi-circular area (est. dims. c. 55m N-S) defined by a scarp. In the 1950's, it was known locally as 'the moat', but by 1972 no visible surface trace survived (SMR file). Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011

• KD014-009 Enclosure
  Description

  On a long and very gentle S-facing slope in mixed tillage and pasture. A rath (KD014-002----) and two other enclosures (KD014-003----, KD014-004----) run in a SE-line immediately to the S. Aerial photographs (CUCAP AVO 83, 84; AVR 9. 1968) show a very large, sub circular area (est. diams. c. 300m N-S; c. 260m E-W) defined by a curving cropmark along N and ENE, the line of which is continued by a modern field boundary E-SW. A road bisects the monument E-W and farmhouses with extensive outbuildings and yards lie opposite one another in the interior, to the N and S of the road. There is no obvious visible surface trace of the cropmark, but its line is preserved by a hedged earthen bank (Wth 1.8-2.5; int H 0.5m; ext H 1.9m) and external fosse (Wth 2.6m; D 1.3m) recut as a field boundary drain E-SW. A gap (Wth 4.3m) with corresponding bridge (Wth 3.8m) at S may be on the site of an original entrance. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
