- RO048-079: Barrow - ring-barrow, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CRO048-079----. Visible on aerial photographs (GSIAP: M 469-8), and situated on a slight rise in an undulating landscape. Circular grass and scrub-covered mound (diam. of top 13.4m NNE-SSW; diam. of base 17m NNE-SSW; H 0.7-0.85m) defined by a fosse (Wth of top 4m; Wth of base 1-1.2m; D 0.45-0.7m) and outer bank (Wth 4.5-6m; H 0.75-0.95m) which is overgrown (max. ext. diam. 29.5m NNE-SSW).

- RO048-080: Barrow - bowl-barrow, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CRO048-080----. Visible on aerial photographs (GSIAP: M 469-8), and situated on the crest of a small N-S esker ridge. Circular overgrown earthen mound (diam. of base 14.9m N-S; 14.8m E-W; H 1.8m) which is slightly truncated NE-SE, with a silted fosse (at SW: Wth of top 4m; max. D 0.6m) SSW-W-NNE (max. ext. diam. 23m). Archaeological testing (04E0458) immediately to the NE in Gortnasythe produced no related archaeological material (Rooney 2007b). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO048-170: Water mill - vertical-wheeled, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CRO048-170----. A mill is marked in this area on the Strafford map of c. 1636, W of Mullagh at a place called Stratamery (Simington 1949, Athlone (73)). It was close to the boundary with Tobberbridy and the bog of Eskebane. The mill and 146 acres was owned by Thomas O'Brennan in 1641, but was disposed of to Justice Donnellan of Cloghan Castle (RO044-055001-) by the 1660s (ibid. 97). In the 19th century a corn and flax mill spanned the W-E Cross River in Ratawragh and Derryglad townlands, run by the O'Brien family. The retting pond survives just W of the mill in Ratawragh as a grass-covered sunken area (diam. c. 40m; D c. 0.5m). No structures survive in Ratawragh on the S side apart from the plinth of the mill against the stream which here is a channel (Wth 1.6m; L c. 6m) between high piers (H c. 4m). The mill wheel must have been set in this channel, which was spanned at W by an arch (Wth 0.45m) that is now broken. On the N side in Derryglad are the remains of a mill building (ext. dims 9.5m E-W; c. 4m N-S) with parts of the N (L 5.5m; max. H 5m; T 0.6) and W (L 3m; max. H 1.8m; T 0.6m) walls surviving. A leat through Derryglad which was dug in 1851 to forestall a court case by-passes the mill. The mill may have been abandoned shortly thereafter. None of the remains can certainly be ascribed to the 17th century but there is a strong likelihood that they might. (Egan 2004, 29-47) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010

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.
