- SL019-113 Enclosure
Description
Situated close to the base of a gentle SW-facing slope in undulating pasture. Depicted on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a small circular enclosure. A NNW-SSE field boundary is depicted as forming the E boundary of the site on the 1913 edition. Both enclosure and the field boundary have been levelled. A low, D-shaped rise (dims. c.16m N-S; c.14m E-W) marks the site of the enclosure. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
- SL019-123 Ringfort - rath
Description
Not marked on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map. This monument utilises a natural hillock with a pronounced S-facing slope. Large raised oval area (dims. 46.5m E-W; 43.5m N-S) defined from ESE-S-WSW by a scarp which merges with the natural slope of the hillock to give an overall height of 3.5m. From N-NE-E a roughly built field wall has been constructed at the upper edge of the scarp. From W-NW-NNW the scarp has been quarried away. No fosse. Original entrance not recognisable. Within the E quadrant is a roughly circular hollow (diam. c.5m) defined by a low rim of earth and stone. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
- SL019-216 Burnt mound
Description
In level, average pasture, drained by field ditches. This mound has been levelled. However, a dense layer of burnt stone (L 10m; D 0.6m) is visible in section in a drain (Wth 1.5m; D 1.2m). In addition the NE side of the drain is bordered by a low bank of upcast containing burnt mound material. This also occurs as a level surface spread extending for c. 6m to E of the bank. There is another burnt mound (SL019-217----) c. 100m to SSE. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 12 May 2011
- SL019-217 Burnt mound
Description
In pasture, situated at the SSW end of a narrow, flat-bottomed valley. A pool, now drained, is shown on the OS 6-inch (1838) map immediately to E of the location of the burnt mound. Low surface remnants of a burnt mound (c. 10-12m N-S; c. 6m E-W) without clearly defined limits at SW-NW but truncated at NE-S by the curve of a modern drain. A layer (D 0.7m) of burnt stone and charcoal is visible in the drain section. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 12 May 2011
- SL019-235 Enclosure
Description
In pasture, situated on a level ridge top. Slightly raised, rectangular area (33.5m E-W; 17.6m N-S) defined at N by a low raised rim (Wth 1.8m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.25m), at E and S by a scarp (H 0.7-1m) and at W by a N-S field boundary and roadway. At E the top of the scarp incorporates some stones which may represent the remains of a kerb or wall. In the E half of the interior there is a gentle slope down from W to E. Original entrance not recognisable. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 12 May 2011
- SL019-252 Burnt mound
Description
In rough, wet pasture, in a flat-bottomed N-S valley. One of several fulachtaí fia and burnt mounds which occur over a distance of 1.5km along the base of the valley. Upon a naturally-occurring scarp is a very slight rise (diam. c. 10m) with a thick mossy covering. A thin layer of burnt stone and charcoal is visible at an eroded area at NW. It is possible that this mound and a burnt mound (SL019-015----), visible in a drain a few meters to N, form parts of a single monument. There is another burnt mound (SL019-253----) c. 15m to SE. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 12 May 2011

A layer of burnt stone and charcoal (D 0.5m) was also visible in the section of a drain which clips the NW of the mound. There is a burnt mound (SL019-253----) 15m to NW, and a burnt mound (SL019-254----) 8m to SE. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 12 May 2011
