- RO056-009: Road - road/trackway, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CRO056-009----. The great esker known as Esker Riada was the mythical boundary between the north half of Ireland – leath Conn – and the south half – Leath Mogh. It also became the line of one of the five great mythical routes of early Ireland , an tSlÍ Mhór - the great road - extending from Tara to the West (O Lochlainn 1940). Sections of a road survive running from Oldtown village ENE towards Cloonburren motte and bailey (RO056-0010----) (L c. 4 km), and beyond that the route would have extended to the bridge at Clonmacnoise (RO055-008----). From Oldtown the route is said to have proceeded SW and crossed the River Suck at the ford (RO056-027001-) in Correen Big, but no evidence of a road survives in this direction. It is described in 1910 (OS Name Books) as a right of way fit for vehicles on the esker from Cloonfad NE as far as Split Hill (L c. 1.2km). From Split Hill it ran on (L c. 0.5 km) to a point where a gap occurs in the esker and a public road runs N towards Moore. The section W of this point is described as an ‘Ancient Road’ on the 1915 ed. of the OS 6-in map and runs on the esker ridge. From the village of Oldtown eastwards the road is visible (L c. 100m) in Cloonfad townland as a raised causeway (Wth of top 2.6m; Wth of base 4m; H 0.2-0.3m) rising up the S face of the esker and it morphs into a slight berm (L c. 340m) as it proceeds to the boundary with Cornaveagh. From here it survives (L c. 150m) as a grass-covered carriageway (Wth 3m) with an earthen bank (Wth 3.3; H 0.9m) on the N and the footing of a wall on the remains of a bank on the S side. As it proceeds eastwards it morphs into a carriageway with traces of a wall on either side (L c. 700m) but it becomes obscured in scrub as it approaches Split Hill. Scrub and a quarry have probably removed the section L c. 450m) as far as the gap in the esker where a public road turns N for Moore. A section (L c. 100m) is recorded as a sunken way (Wth of base c. 3m; D c. 0.4m) extending W from this gap and rising up the N side of the esker. From the gap in the esker the route eastwards is largely on the S side of the esker and if it was ever an ancient road it is replaced by the modern public road. At a gap in the esker c. 1km further east from the Moore road a branch (RO056-009001-) turned N to Cloonburrren church site (RO056-007002-). From the gap in the esker it ran NNE (L c. 180m) and joined the present road (L c. 140m) from where it probably turned E (L c. 330m) and then N (L c. 500m) to join the laneway just E of the graveyard (RO056-007001-). Only a short section of a sunken way (Wth c. 2-8m; L c. 40m) survives at the S end, and the N end is visible as a cropmark of two linear ditch features placed c. 10m apart (L c. 200m) on aerial images (OSAP: 1995). Archaeological testing (01E0260) c. 90m to the W and c. 200m S of the church failed to produce any related material (Henry 2003). See the attached aerial image taken from the WSW.

A scatter (L 10m; Wth 1.5m; D 0.07m) of sawn birch roundwoods and brushwood (diam. 0.055-0.07m). All branches have been trimmed and there are several forked pieces with saw marks at the stem end. Bark is intact and the wood is in fresh condition. This dump of wood may be modern. Compiled by: Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit, UCD. Date of upload: 24 August 2010

The site (Wth 1.06m; D 0.11m) is orientated NW-SE and consists of silty clay running across the bog. It is visible in several sections. At the centre of the bog the structure drops below the level of the drains. Small red pebbles have rotted and leached through the structure. Compiled by: Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit, UCD. Date of upload: 24 August 2010

An isolated piece of worked alder (L 0.48m; diam. 0.04m) exposed in a drain face. All extraneous branches are trimmed off and one end of it has been sawn but the bark is intact. The piece is orientated NW-SE and may be the result of modern clearance. Compiled by: Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit, UCD. Date of upload: 24 August 2010

Several branches thrown down in a fairly haphazard longitudinal arrangement. Branch ends are broken and in a degraded condition. No toolmarks are visible. This structure may be the result of modern activity. Compiled by: Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit, UCD. Date of upload: 24 August 2010

A wooden vessel (L 0.45m max.; Wth 0.3m max.) containing a quantity of bog butter reported to the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (UCD) by Bord na Móna personnel. The vessel, found lying on its side with the upper surface missing, was discovered during peat milling and has been damaged by machinery. A quantity of bog butter had been knocked from the vessel and was scattered about the bog surface. The vessel was originally made of at least two individual pieces held together by thin wooden hoops (approx. Wth 0.01m; D 0.004m max.). Compiled by: Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit, UCD.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
