## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- RO036-002001: Concentric enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CRO036-002001-. On a slight rise in a low-lying landscape with a SW-NE stream immediately to the NW. Circular grass-covered area (diam. 46m N-S; 42m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3-3.4m; int. H 0.35m; ext. H 0.7-1.3m) which is reduced to a scarp (H 1.4m) NW-N, and a rounded fosse (Wth of top 5.7-7m; Wth of base 2.7-3.5m; D 0.1-0.3m) N-S-WNW. The entrance (Wth 2m) is at SSE. It is within a D-shaped enclosure (dims c. 180m NE-SW; c. 100m NW-SE) defined by an earthen bank which is best preserved (Wth 3.3m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 0.75m) at E and which is reduced to a scarp (H0.1-0.2m) SSW-W, with traces of an outer fosse (Wth of base 1.6m; D 0.1m) NE-SSW. The outer enclosure backs onto the channeled stream at NW and cannot be seen beyond it where a coniferous forest had been planted by 2005 (OSAP). See the attached aerial view taken from the E. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO036-002003: Cairn - clearance cairn, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CRO036-002003-. On a slight rise in a low-lying position. A small heap of stones in the inner enclosure of the concentric enclosure (RO036-002001-) (Gannon 1972) is interpreted by the SMR Office as a house site, but the heap is likely to be a modern clearance cairn, and is no longer in evidence.

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

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.
