Description
Depicted as a rectangular embanked enclosure (ext. dims c. 50m E-W; c. 25m N-S) on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and as a slight linear N-S scarp on the 1915 ed. Situated on a slight rise in a low-lying landscape. This is a rectangular scrub-covered platform (dims of top 13.6m E-W; 11m N-S; dims of base 19.3m E-W; H 1.2m) with a grass-covered berm (Wth 12.5m) to the W defined by a scarp (H 0.5m; L 46m N-S). The platform is cut by N-S field banks at E and W, while the platform and scarp are cut by or abut a road wall at S.

Description
A building and a mill are marked on the Strafford map of c. 1636 on the S bank of a short W-E stream flowing into Lough Ree at Carnagh Bay (Simington 1949, Athlone (244)). Just 10m S of the mill (RO046-012002-) is a conserved rectangular structure (ext. dims 11m E-W; 5.4m N-S) defined by masonry walls (H 1.2m) with a fireplace in the E wall which is known locally as the miller's house.

- RO046-012002 Mill - unclassified
Description
Marked on the Strafford map of c. 1636, and a mill owned by Sir Luke Dillon and others in 1641 had passed to Erasmus Smith later in the 17th century (Simington 1949, Athlone (244) 98). It is marked as a functioning corn and tuck mill on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. Situated on the S bank of a short W-E stream flowing into Lough Ree at Carnagh Bay, and just W of a bridge. The stream is stone-lined (Wth 1.4m; D 1m at S; 2m at N) with part of the N (L c. 3m; H c. 2m) and E (L c. 2m; H 1.5m) walls of a structure represented by a cairn (dims 6m N-S; 6m E-W; H 0.6m at S) and known locally as O'Brien's mill. Just 10m S and on the other side of a NE-SW section of road is a rectangular structure (RO046-012001-) (ext. dims 11m E-W; 5.4m N-S) defined by masonry walls (H 1.2m) with a fireplace in the E wall that is known locally as the millers house.

- RO048-042 Earthwork
Description
Marked as an irregularly shaped copse (dims c. 60m NW-SE; c. 40m NE-SW) on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and as a circular feature planted with trees (diam. c. 50m) on the 1915 ed. Situated on the crest of a slight E-W ridge in an undulating landscape, it is not visible within a sports field. Archaeological testing (02E0753) to the E failed to recover any related material (Read 2004m). A geophysical survey (14R0120) on the area of a proposed sports pitch immediately to the E produced no definitive indications of activity apart from a possible path (Leigh 2014), and archaeological testing (14E0442) confirmed this as a mix of stones and gravel but produced no other evidence of archaeological features (Byrne 2014). Rath (RO048-043----) is c. 180m to the SW and earthwork (RO048-044----) is c. 80m to the S. See: excavations.ie 2014:252.

- RO048-044 Earthwork
Description
Marked as a D-shaped feature planted with trees (dims c. 35m NE-SW; c. 20m NW-SE) truncated by a NE-SW field boundary at NW on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and as a circular feature (diam. c. 30m) N of a NE-SW field boundary on the 1915 ed. Situated at the crest of a slight SE-facing slope. It is not visible at ground level in an area partly occupied by a football pitch, but archaeological testing (02E0753) in the vicinity failed to produce any related material (Read 2004m). A geophysical survey (14R0120) on the area of the pitch to the NE produced no definitive indications of activity apart from a possible path (Leigh 2014), and archaeological testing (14E0442) confirmed this as a mix of stones and gravel but produced no other evidence of archaeological features (Byrne 2014). Rath (RO048-043----) is c. 140m to the W and earthwork (RO048-042----) is c. 80m to the N. See: excavations.ie 2014:252.
