Recorded monuments

• MA119-003 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on a level ridge-top plateau. Located just below the crest of the ridge, which rises gently to W−NW, and close to the fall of ground on the SE side, which gives extensive views NE−S over a broad sweep of rolling grassland. A slightly raised circular area (40.4m N−S; 41.1m E−W) defined by a substantial earthen bank. At W−N, there is a single rough basal course of stone facing. Elsewhere around the circuit, stones protrude randomly from the dilapidated internal face of the bank –possibly remnants of an original stone facing. The bank has a fairly broad and flattened top; it is riddles with rabbit burrows and eroded in parts by cattle. There is a break (Wth 5m) at NNE and another (Wth 3m) at E. Immediately outside the bank at E is a hollow area (c. 10m across) with a pool of water in its base, surrounded by overgrowth. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 30 May 2023

• MA119-004002 Enclosure
  Description

  In average pasture in gently undulating terrain. Not shown on any edition of the OS 6-inch maps. Visible in aerial photographs (CUCAP AYR 85 & 86; SMR file). Oval enclosure (31.6m WNW−ESE; 42m NNE−SSW) defined by a drystone wall. At SSE−SSW where the enclosing wall serves as a property/townland boundary, it is high, roughly coursed (Wth 0.7m; H 1.8m) with a coping of contiguous stones set on edge, and appears to rest on a rough plinth of stones and boulders. At SW−ENE the wall is reduced to a low sod-covered stone ‘bank’ (Wth 3.4m; H 0.4-0.6m). On the E−SE arc there is an upstanding roughly constructed wall. There is a break (Wth 10m) at NNE. The interior is not raised above surrounding ground level; the surface is uneven and stone-strewn. Immediately to N and NE is an area (c. 20-25m across) of uneven stony ground, with hollows and exposed seams of limestone, which appear to have been quarrying. Towards the N edge of this area, there is a rough poorly defined rectangular feature (c. 10m E−W; 5m N−S), possibly remnants of an 18/19th century house.
