Recorded monuments

• KK020-039 Burnt mound
  Description

  In pasture, reclaimed marsh. One of seven fulachta fia (KK020-013----; KK020-039----; KK020-075----; KK020-076-----; KK020-077----; KK020-078----; KK029-079-----) noted by O'Flaherty (1983, 16) during fieldwalking in advance of the laying of the Cork-Dublin gas pipeline in the townlands of Clohoge and Rathcash, Co. Kilkenny, but the only one excavated as it lay within the pipeline corridor (O'Flahery 1987, 45). All the fulachta fia had been ploughed out, but were visible as roughly circular spreads of burnt stone and charcoal (O'Flaherty 1983, 16). As the monuments had no visible troughs they have been reclassified as burnt mounds. Excavation revealed burnt stone and charcoal spread over a 2m wide area and that the original extent of the mound on the S side was 1.5m, visible as soil discolouration and burnt stone embedded in the boulder clay level (O'Flahery 1987, 45). There were no associated finds and no trough was uncovered, though this may have been outside the limit of the excavation (ibid.). Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 17 November 2020

• KK020-075 Burnt mound
  Description

  In pasture, reclaimed marsh. O'Flaherty (1983, 16) notes that during fieldwalking in advance of the laying of the Cork-Dublin gas pipeline, 'seven fulachta fiadha were discovered in the townlands of Clohoge and Rathcash, Co. Kilkenny. These sites had been ploughed out, but were visible as roughly circular spreads of burnt stone and charcoal'. Five of these monuments were located on an extract of a 6-inch OS map (KK020-075----; KK020-076-----; KK020-077----; KK020-078----; KK029-079-----) (per. comm. Maurice Hurley 1987). A sixth (KK020-039-----) was excavated as it lay within the pipeline corridor (O'Flahery 1987, 45). There is no information on the location of the seventh fulachta fiadha (KK020-013----), its precise location with the townlands of Cloghoge and Rathcash is unknown. As the monuments had no visible troughs they have been reclassified as burnt mounds. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 17 November 2020
