- RO038A002 Earthwork
Description
Marked as an oval or D-shaped feature (dims c. 105m N-S; c. 80m E-W) only on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map (GA020), and situated towards the bottom of the NW-facing slope of an ENE-WSW ridge. It is not visible at ground level in pasture and was probably a large field. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO038A004 Mass-rock
Description
Located at the crest of a gentle NE-facing slope. A red sandstone block (dims 0.54m x 0.33m; H 0.2m) with traces of lime-wash on one of the long vertical sides was found in earth-moving activity c. 2010 close to a farm complex that has been extant since at least 1837 (OS 6-inch map). The upper surface has a small, equal-armed cross (H 8cm; span 6.5cm) of pecked lines (Wth 1cm) towards one edge of the stone. There is a small hole (diam. 1cm) at the end of one arm and a small incised triangle (Wth 1.6cm; H 2.5cm), interpreted locally as a chalice, at one of the angles. A fainter, oval (dims c. 5cm x c. 2.5cm) at the centre of the stone is interpreted as a lamb. There is contemporary testimony that Fr. Edmund Keely or Kelly, a friar who had not taken the Oath of Abjuration and was therefore not properly registered, said Mass at Kinmully (Creemullly) in 1711-12. He was arrested but released soon afterwards and had died by 1715 (Burke 1914, 448-50). Another friar in the Fuerty area at that time was Fr. Francis Hurley and there was said to be a third (ibid.). No connection between Fr. Kelly or any of the friars and the mass-rock can be established, but the traces of lime-wash on one of its sides suggests that it had been incorporated in a wall at one time, perhaps in an effort to secure it.

- RO039-057 Ringfort - rath
Description
Towards the top of a NW-facing slope. Circular overgrown area (diam. 50.3m N-S; 49.6m E-W) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth 3.2-4.8m; int. H 0.1-0.25m; ext. H 1-1.1m) and outer rounded fosse (at NW: Wth of top 4.4m; Wth of base 2m; D 0.15m), which has been truncated slightly by an E-W field bank at S, while the bank is reduced to a scarp (H 1.05m) and the fosse is missing NNW-NE. There are entrances at NNW (Wth 2.4m) and NNE (Wth 2.2m). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO039-058 Ringfort - cashel
Description
On a gentle SE-facing slope. Circular grass-covered area (int. diam. 46.4m N-S; 40m E-W) defined by an overgrown stone spread (at S: Wth 2.1m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 1m) which is largely obscured by spoil. There are entrances at WSW (Wth 4m) and NNE (Wth 4m). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO039-092 Fulacht fia
Description
At the bottom of a N-facing slope and at the S edge of a small lake (dims c. 130m NE-SW; c. 50m NW-SE). Oval, flat-topped and grass-covered mound (dims of base 15.4m E-W; 11m N-S; dims of top 8m E-W; 4.3m N-S; H 0.3-0.4m) of broken and burnt stone.
