Recorded monuments
- RO047-034 Field boundary
Description
Marked as an 'Exceedingly crooked wall' on an undated Longfield map in NLI (ms. 21.f.43 (5)). A drystone-built limestone wall, partly collapsed and moss-covered, but there is no reason to think it an antiquity, especially as the Longfield map, although undated, is unlikely to be any earlier than late eighteenth century.

- RO047-035001 Ringfort - cashel
Description
Visible on aerial photographs (GSIAP: M 472-3) and situated on an undulating landscape. D-shaped grass-covered area (int. dims 22m N-S; 18.5m E-W) defined by a grass-covered stone spread (Wth 3.7m; int. H 0.55m; ext. H 0.7m) but truncated at E by a N-S field wall of field system (RO047-035002-). The enclosure is divided by two NNE-SSW old field walls with two cross-walls creating small paddocks. The original entrance is not identified. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO047-035002 Field system
Description
Visible on aerial photographs (GSIAP: M 472-3) and situated on an undulating landscape. A grass-covered area of about 14 acres (c. 6 ha) containing relict earth and stone field boundaries which create irregularly rectangular fields (dims c. 50m x 50-100m). One field wall has truncated cashel (RO047-035001-) and the field walls are likely to post-date this monument, but there is no evidence of settlement sites or lazy-bed cultivation associated with the fields.

- RO047-036 Ringfort - cashel
Description
Visible as a circular stone-walled enclosure (diam. c. 35m) divided into three by field walls of the modern field system on vertical aerial photographs (GSIAP: M 472-3), and situated on an undulating landscape. The land has been reclaimed although the dividing field walls are still in place, but the enclosure is not visible now at ground level in pasture. It is probably a cashel.

- RO047-037 Field boundary
Description
Marked on an undated manuscript map (NLI: Ms. 21.F.43(5)) as a long boundary (L c. 500m), and situatued on an undulating landscape. A small section (L c. 100m) survives as a low gapped bank of small stones which does not conform to the present field pattern but is not necessarily ancient.

- RO047-038 Field system
Description
Visible on aerial photographs (CUCAP: APH 43-4; BDO 23-4), and situated on an undulating landscape in Carrownadurly and Lisseenamanragh townlands. An area of about 74 acres (c. 30 ha) with old field walls and lazy-bed cultivation. The land is reclaimed and the relict system is reduced to two small areas. This area contains about 4 acres (c. 1.5 ha) of grassland with old field walls and lazy-beds, probably 18th or 19th century in date. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
