- SL016-057: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL016-057----. Situated at the edge of a terrace on the W-facing slope of a roughly NE-SW ridge in pasture. Raised circular area (diam. 25m) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 4.5m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 1.1m) with a largely infilled external fosse (Wth 3.5m; max. D 0.4m). A break in the bank (Wth 3m) at E represents the original entrance. Close to the inner face of the bank at S is a hollow (dims. 6m x 5m; D 0.6m). Within the E quadrant of the interior a large slab protrudes at ground level. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
- SL022-008: Milling complex, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL022-008----. Listed in the SMR (1989) as 'Non-antiquity' and in the RMP (1995) 'Mill Pond'. Not marked on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map. On the 1913 edition a 'Corn Mill' is depicted at the external face of the SW end of the NW wall of the yard of 'Castletown House' (SL022-009----). A 'Mill Race' is shown linking the mill and a mill pond (diam. 33.5m) with sluice c.250m SW. This is a post-1700 monument. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 31 July 2012
- SL022-009: House - fortified house, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL022-009----. Situated in level pasture. Rectangular, three storey with attic, gable-ended, limestone built structure (19.8m ENE-WSW; 9m NNW-SSW ; Wall T 1.5m) with base batter. At ground floor level there are three slit opes in the SSE wall, two in the WSW wall and two in the NNW wall. All, with the exception of one round-headed example in the NNW wall, are square headed and chamfered. All have had their embrasures filled in. The original entrance is in the centre of the SSE wall. A large, broken-out opening in the NNW wall may mark a secondary entrance. The modern entrance is in the centre of the ENE wall. At first floor level there are two slit opes with hood-moulding in the ENE wall. There is one square-headed and chamfered window in the SSE wall and two in the WSW wall. In the NNW and SSE walls are four and three large rectangular windows respectively. These are later insertions. At second floor level there are single slit opes in the ENE, SSE, and WSW walls. In the NNW and SSE walls there are four and 3 large rectangular windows respectively. These are later insertions. Access to the battlements is via a round-headed, two-centred doorway at the SSE end of the ENE wall. There are large chimney stacks at each gable and a walk-way between the chimney stacks and the battlements. There are bartizans at the WNW and ESE angles. There are large blocked-up fireplaces in both gables at 1st and 2nd floor levels. The floors were supported by corbels. Draughting on the corbels and on other stonework suggests that the structure dates to around the middle of the 17th century. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
- SL022-010001: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL022-010001-. Situated on a WSW-facing slope in poor pasture. From WNW-N-NNE the site is bordered by a now dried-up stream. Large D-shaped area (dims. 65m NW-SE; 50m NE-SW) defined from SSW-N-E by a low, stone-faced scarp (H 0.6m - 1m), with ephemeral remains of a bank at its upper edge, and elsewhere defined by a naturally-occurring, almost linear gully. Break in scarp at W (Wth. 2.8m) probably marks the original entrance. In the SE quadrant is a slightly raised subrectangular area (dims. 26m NW-SE; 21m NE-SW) enclosed by the largely grassed-over remains of a low wall of stone and earth (H 0.1m - 0.35m). In the NW corner is a pillar stone (SL022-010003-). Also within this sub-enclosure are numerous low upright stones which presumably mark burials (SL022-010002-). Compiled by: Patrick F.

- SL022-010002: Burial ground, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL022-010002-. In the SE quadrant of a larger D-shaped enclosure (SL022-010001-), bordered on the SE side by a stream. A slightly raised subrectangular area (26m NW-SE; 21m NE-SW) enclosed by the largely grassed-over remains of a low wall (int. H 0.1-0.3m) of stone and earth, which incorporates the enclosing bank of the larger enclosure on the NE and SE sides. The interior of the burial ground is divided in two by a low scarp on a NE–SW axis which marks a drop of 0.7m in ground level between the larger NW part and a lower, smaller SE terrace which slopes down to the stream. In the NW corner of the raised NW part of the burial ground, there is a cross-inscribed pillar (SL022-010003-). A random scatter of low stones protruding from the sod may represent grave markers.

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.
