• MA111-058 Enclosure
  Description

  Located adjacent to the townland boundary, in a neglected garden field adjacent to a derelict cottage. A small circular enclosure is shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; a hachured enclosure (diam. c. 12-15m) is shown on the 25-inch plan; it is not shown on the 1930 OS 6-inch edition. A slight grass-covered rise/undulation (Wth c. 2-3m) curving in a shallow arc W–N in the N side of the field, backing onto the wall bordering the road may be a remnant of the enclosure.

• MA111-059 Enclosure
  Description

  Located in a level expanse of average pasture. A circular embanked enclosure (diam. 20-25m) is shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; it is not shown on later map editions. There is no visible trace at ground level. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 21 December 2022

• MA111-060 Enclosure
  Description

  Located in a level field of improved pasture. A circular embanked enclosure (diam. c. 20m) is shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; it is not shown on later map editions. There is no visible trace at ground level. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 21 December 2022

• MA111-061001 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, sited at the break of slope on the E-facing slope of a narrow valley through which a stream flows to NNW. There are good views along the line of the valley and over expanses of pastureland to W and NW. Raised roughly platform (35.4m NW−SE; 37.6m NE−SW) defined by an earthen scarp. The scarp (H 0.5m; Wth slope 1m at SW) is low and somewhat eroded for most of the circuit, but at NE−SE it converges with the natural fall of ground and here the scarp (H 2.35m at NE; Wth slope 3.8m) is well defined, high and pronounced. The scarp is lowest at N where it forms a slight ramp-like slope, possibly an entrance. The W half of the interior is fairly level. There is a gentle slope down from centre to E. Relict cultivation ridges traverse the interior on a NNW−SSE axis, most clearly visible in the E half of the interior. There is an opening into a souterrain (MA111-061002-) in the S half of the interior. The rath was used as a children’s burial ground (MA111-061003-) and low fieldstone gravemarkers are concentrated in the W half of the interior. A few stones, possibly gravemarkers, are visible in a shallow depression (c. 5m NW−SE; c. 4m NE−SW) located immediately outside the rath, at the foot of the scarp at NW. It is possible that this depression is a remnant of a fosse, but it cannot be traced elsewhere around the circuit. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 17 February 2023

• MA111-061002 Souterrain
  Description

  In a rath (MA111-061001-). Indicated as ‘Cave’ on the 1930 OS 6-inch map, this souterrain is evidenced at ground level by three areas of surface subsidence on a roughly N−S alignment in the S half of the rath interior. The most northerly depression (c. 3m N−S; c. 2m E−W) is very shallow, with a small hole, possibly lintelled evident at its S end. A second surface depression (1.5m NNW−SSE; 1.1m ENE−WSW) is located 2.5m to S, and 2.4m S of that is a third roughly square shallow depression (1m N−S; 1m E−W; D 0.3m), which is 4.5m N of the S arc of the rath scarp. The total length of this row of subsidence is c. 11m N−S. At the SSE end of the second or middle area of subsidence there is an opening into a passage (Wth 1.4m) with drystone walls and lintel roofing. The passage extends to S for 6-7m, ending at S at a blank wall. The floor appears to slope down for a few meters from the opening, which is partly blocked by loose soil and stones, and then levels out, giving room to stand at the S end of the passage. According to the landowner, a low narrow opening, now blocked, at the S end of the W wall of the passage, leads to another passage. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 17 February 2023

• MA111-061003 Children's burial ground
  Description

  At a rath (MA111-061001-). The rath is indicated as a children’s burial ground on the 1930 OS 6-inch map but not on the 1838 edition. Simple, low uninscribed stone gravemarkers are set in the ground throughout the level W half of the rath interior. The overall impression is of a random scatter, but amidst the spread it can be seen that several close-set stones are arranged in rows, aligned roughly N−S or NNW−SSE, some apparently on the line of the relict cultivation ridges which traverse the rath interior. Immediately outside the rath, at the foot of the scarp at NW, there is a shallow depression (c. 5m NW−SE; c. 4m NE−SW) defined on the NE side by a low sod-covered stony rise and on the SW side by a slight, poorly defined scarp. A few stones protrude from the sod in this hollow and a single large prostrate slab lies on the N edge of the hollow; these may also be gravemarkers.

• MA111-106 Mound
  Description

  Located in gently undulating average pasture. A roughly circular, grass-covered mound (diam. c. 10-12m; H 1.5m at SE), domed in profile, with a rather uneven surface and irregular appearance. It appears to be composed of earth and stones, and two large, close-set stones protrude from the top. The base of the mound spreads out for 3-4m at S–NW in a low berm-like slope. The nature of this mound is unclear. It may simply be a field clearance cairn, possibly utilising a natural rise. There is an enclosure (MA111-059----) c. 70m to SW.
