- RO006-026001 Church
Description
The church of Drum Conaille, probably the original parish church of Boyle, is listed as Drunn in the ecclesiastical taxation of Elphin in 1306 (Cal. Doc. Ire. vol. 5, 224), and was burnt by Farrell O'Rourke in 1487 (AFM vol. 4, 1156-7). It is situated at the bottom of a N-facing slope just 50m from the S bank of the W-E Boyle River, c. 1km before it enters Lough Key. Rectangular structure (ext. dims c. 16-16.5m E-W; 9-9.5m N-S) defined by the foundations of mortared stone walls and an inward-sloping scarp (H 0.3m) but a large dump of stone obscures the interior. A field wall runs N-S across the site. It is surrounded by the field system (RO006-026002-), and the souterrain (RO006-026003-) is nearby. It is mistakenly called Eas-mac-neirc by D'Alton (1845, 75-6) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO006-026002 Field system
Description
On the N-facing slope of a ridge beside the S bank of the W-E Boyle River, c. 1km from where it enters Lough Key. D-shaped, wedge-shaped and rectangular grass-covered fields (average dims. c. 30m x 25m) cover an area of 4.5 ha. The field boundaries are defined by earthen banks (Wth 4-5m), scarps (H 0.3-1.5m) and grass-covered, stone spreads. Archaeological excavation in a field to the SE recovered a further portion as a field drain (L 11m; Wth 1m; D 0.3m) (Read 2009a). A disused grass-covered roadway (RO006-026004-) (L c. 150m; Wth 5.5-6m) runs NE-SW through the field-system. It may have been connected with the road (RO006-027----) c. 400m to the NE on the other side of the river, and with the road (RO006-077002-) c. 2km to the S. The church (RO006-026001-) and souterrain (RO006-026002-) are within the area. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO006-026003 Souterrain
Description
On the N-facing slope of a ridge above the S bank of the W-E Boyle River and c. 50m ESE of Drum church (RO006-026001-) and within the field system (RO006-026002-). It is described in italic lettering as a 'Cave' on the 1837 and 1911 editions of the OS 6-inch map. There is no description of it available and it is now closed or collapsed. A grass-covered depression extends N-S (L 13m) and turned E (L 9m) at its S end. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revised upload: 6 November 2018

Description
On the N-facing slope of a ridge above the S bank of the W-E Boyle River. A disused grass-covered roadway (L c. 150m; Wth 5.5-6m) runs NE-SW through the field-system (RO006-026002-). The church (RO006-026001-) and souterrain (RO006-026002-) are within the area. It may have been connected with the road (RO006-027----) c. 400m to the NW on the other side of the river, and with the road (RO006-077002-) c. 1 km to the S. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO006-069 Ringfort - rath
Description
On a rise of a N-facing slope. Circular area (diam. c. 28m) defined by a scarp (H 1-1.8m) NW-E-SSE and an outer berm (Wth 1-5m) NW-E. The interior and the rest of the perimeter is occupied by a house and garden. Archaeological excavation (00E0766) outside the perimeter at SW revealed no related features (Morahan 2002), and further testing (10E0478) c. 100m to the SE produced the same result (O'Neill 2013).

- RO006-077002 Road - road/trackway
Description
Visible on aerial photographs (OS 1 3322-1), and situated on a level landscape. A linear grass-covered depression (L 120m; Wth 9-10m; D 0.2-0.5m) runs NNE-SSW, c. 1 km E of Boyle. It may have connected with the road (RO006-026004-), c. 1 km to the N. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO006-078002 Field system
Description
On a rock outcrop rise in an undulating landscape. Aerial photographs (OS 1 3322-1) show an area of c. 10 ha with relict field banks creating long rectangular strips (dims c. 600m NE-SW x c. 50m NW-SE). These are not generally visible at ground level in reclaimed pasture, but a section of one excavated at its N end proved inconclusive (Henry 2004a). At the S end in an area of rock outcrop covering c. 2 ha field walls consisting of grass and moss-covered spreads (Wth c. 3-5m; H 0.5m) of large stones (dims c. 1m x c. 0.5m x c. 0.5m) create small fields (dims c. 15m x c. 7m to c. 15m x c. 15m) in which two house sites (RO006-078003-; RO006-078004-) can be recognised. These are rectangular one-room structures (int. dims 6m x 4.7m: 6.4m x 3.7m) defined by the remnants of stone walls. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
