- LF015-084 Burnt mound
Description
Archaeological testing (Tinnynarr 1) in 2004 in advance of roadworks exposed a burnt mound (9.4 x 7.9m). It lay outside the area of the road-take and was preserved in situ (McQuade 2007, 250–51). A possible fulacht fia (LF015-085----) lies c. 130m to the NNW. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 22 November 2011
- LF015-085 Fulacht fia
Description
Identified in 2004 during archaeological testing in advance of roadworks (McQuade 2007, 251). Subsequent excavation in 2005 revealed several small, truncated and highly disturbed features containing charcoal and burnt stone. The excavator believed that the deposits were consistent with a fulacht fia (Tinnynarr 002) that had been severely damaged by agricultural activity (McCabe 2008, 253). A burnt mound (LF015-084----) lies c. 130m to the SE. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 22 November 2011
- LF015-086 Excavation - miscellaneous
Description
Archaeological testing in 2004 in advance of roadworks exposed a series of pits (Tinnynarr 002-004) filled with charcoal and burnt stone (McQuade 2007, 251). Subsequent excavation of Tinnynarr 003 in 2005 failed to reveal any further information (McCabe 2008, 253). Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 25 February 2013

Description
Pre-development testing in 2004 along the proposed route of N4 Edgesworthstown inner relief road revealed a deposit (0.96m x 0.75m; D 0.20m) of charcoal-rich soil with burnt stone (Tinnynarr 005). Excavation yielded no other features or artifacts (McQuade 2007, 251). Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- LF020-001 Ringfort - rath
Description
On the gentle SW-facing slope of a low ridge in pasture. A report in 1976 (SMR file) indicates that this raised circular area (diam. c. 28m) was enclosed by a wide low bank of earth and stone and an intervening fosse. A outer bank was evident from N-S-SW. It is defined by a partially degraded scarp (H 0.6-0.8m), at the base of which is a wide shallow fosse (Wth 3.8m; D 0.15m). The outer bank is no longer evident at ground level and the original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 18 January 2012
- LF020-004 Barrow - bowl-barrow
Description
In wet, low-lying pasture. Depicted as a small circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A circular, steep-sided mound of earth and stone (diam. at base 14m; H 1.2-1.4m) encircled by a shallow fosse (Wth 2m; D 0.2-0.3m). At the outer lip of the fosse are fragmentary traces of a possible bank. The top of the mound is slightly dished (D 0.2m). Four mature oak trees are growing on the monument. Compiled by: Patrick F.
