• KK027-036 Barrow - ring-barrow
  Description

  Indicated as an sub-rectangular enclosure on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and as a relatively small enclosure on the 1948 revision. The monument was levelled c. 2000. On satellite imagery (Digitalglobe 2005-2012) the fosse of the enclosure (internal diam. c. 24m; overall diam. c. 30m) is visible. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 3 April 2023

• KK027-048 Ringfort - unclassified
  Description

  Indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and it is shown on the 1948 revision as a roughly circular enclosure (overall diam. c. 44m). There are trees growing around the perimeter and in the interior. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 4 April 2023

• KK027-098 Enclosure
  Description

  On a low ridge, c. 1.6km SW of the confluence of the River Nore and the Kings River. A barrow (KK027-035----), where the Roman Stonyford burial (KK027-095----) may have found, is located 250m to the W. An enclosure (KK027-096----) lies c. 210m to the W and another barrow (KK027-036----) lies c. 250m to the S. A circular enclosure (diam. 26m), identified as a result of a geophysical survey carried out in 2014 (Rassmann et al. 2019, 355-6). No clear internal features were identified, though there were a number of pit-like anomalies (ibid.).   Compiled by: Jean Farrelly

• KK027-099 Enclosure
  Description

  In pasture, c. 1.7km SW of the confluence of the River Nore and the Kings River. A barrow (KK027-035----), where the Roman Stonyford burial (KK027-095----) may have found, is located 250m to the NW, with its adjacent enclosure (KK027-096----) c. 205m to the NW. A circular enclosure (KK027-098----) lies c. 100m to the N and a barrow (KK027-036----) c. 110m to the S. Portion of a possible rectilinear enclosure (dims. 33m N-S; 50m E-W), the fosse of which was identified as a result of a geophysical survey carried out in 2014 (Rassmann et al. 2019, 355-7). Only the N and E fosse, with the NE angle, were revealed in the geophysical survey as this rectilinear feature was located at the lower limit of the area covered by the survey (ibid. 355). Within the possible interior a number of pit-like and linear features were identified (ibid.). This may be a medieval moated site, however, it was also suggested in light of its proximity to barrows, one of which may have been where the Stonyford Roman burial was deposited, and its adjacent, possible Iron Age enclosure (KK027-096----), that this may have links with Late Iron Age square ritual enclosures (ibid. 356).   Compiled by: Jean Farrelly

• KK028-017 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  Within a band of woodland, the River Nore flows N-S c. 160m to the E. Indicated as ‘St. John’s Well’ on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and the 1948-9 revision. It appears to be a spring well, with a stream running S from it for c. 140m before turning SE to flow into the River Nore. According to Carrigan (1905, vol. 4, 12) the holy well is, ‘dedicated to St. John, from which the subdivision takes its name and which itself is an evidence of the connection of the Knights of St. John with the townland’. It is described by O’Kelly (1969, 164) as, St. John’s Well, John of Jerusalem, Order of the Knights Hospitallers’.   Compiled by: Jean Farrelly
