• SL025-008 Megalithic tomb - wedge tomb
  Description

  On top of a ridge in rolling drumlin-like country. A well-preserved gallery (L 8.9m), flanked at both sides by the remains of outer-walling, opens onto a flat facade at the W. The front of the monument is incorporated in a field fence. The gallery is divided by a septal-stone into a portico (L 1.6m; Wth 1.4m) and main chamber (L 7m; Wth 1.7m at septal-stone, 1m near the backstone). Single stones form the sides of the portico and each articulates with a facade-stone. A stone stands in the gap between the facade-stones thus dividing the gallery entrance. Eight stones are in position on the N side of the main chamber and six on the S side and these display a general decrease in height from W to E. A roofstone covers the portico and another the rear of the gallery. Between these three others lie displaced along the gallery. A line of three outer-wall stones (the middle one fallen outwards) adjoins the northern facade-stone and a lone outer-wall stone remains on the opposite side of the structure about 1m beyond the front of the main chamber. Outside this there is a displaced slab and there is another outside the N side of the gallery. There is an unclassified megalithic tomb (SL025-009----) c. 300m to SE.

• SL025-009 Megalithic tomb - unclassified
  Description

  The monument, greatly ruined, stands about 300m SE of a wedge tomb (SL025-008----) and is on similar land at the foot of the ridge occupied by that tomb. It consists of a number of large prostrate slabs and leaning stones along with some small set stones. The remains stretch some 7.5m SE-NW, perhaps the alignment of the ruined structure, and are described here as if they lay E-W. There are two set stones at the W end neither more than 0.8m long or 0.2m high, one set transversely to the long axis of the structure and the other at its more northerly side. Close to the E end there is a large westwards-leaning slab (L 2.3m; H if upright c. 2m) at right angles to the long axis of the structure. West of and at right angles to the S end of this there is a somewhat smaller northwards-leaning slab. At right-angles to the outer face of the former there is a small set stone (L 0.6m; T 0.15m; H 0.25m) and 0.6m S of the latter there is another (L 0.9m; T 0.15m; H 0.4m). Along the N side of structure there are three large displaced slabs, the largest 3.5m x 2.4m x 0.6m T. There are also other smaller displaced and partly buried stones at the site. Traces of mound survive along the N side and W end of the structure.

• SL025-010 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In rocky pasture, on the S side of a low rise. A slightly raised roughly circular area (34.5m E-W) enclosed by an earth and stone bank NNE-NNW which is levelled for 20m NNW-NNE. The bank is generally low and sod-covered, possibly composed of an earthen base capped by a stone wall with internal and external kerbstones evident in places. It is best preserved S-SW (Wth 3.5m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 1.5m), obscured by dumped field clearance stones along the E arc and overgrown with vegetation along the S arc. The interior is level; a large slab protrudes from the ground in the S half and two large stones were noted in the W half. There are field boundaries immediately outside the bank to S and W. A rectangular enclosure (SL025-162----) lies c. 70m to S.

• SL025-024001 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In rough stony pasture, on a gentle SE-facing slope. A circular area (31m NW-SE; 28m NE-SW) enclosed by a scarp (H 1-1.2m) with a slight internal lip (Wth c. 1.5m) E-SW, by a stone field boundary W-NNE and by a low sod-covered stony rise (int. H 0.4m) NNE-E. The scarp and lip appear to be very stony and with the low rise are heavily overgrown with blackthorn bushes and brambles. A possible entrance (Wth c. 1.2m) is at ESE. The S portion of the interior is raised to compensate for the hillslope. The NW quadrant the interior is fairly level but it slopes down from there to SE, levelling out again close to the scarp SE-S. There is a souterrain (SL025-024002-) in the SW quadrant. A large slab, barely protruding above the sod, is located in the NE quadrant close to the NNE perimeter and appears to overlie a shallow hollow but there is no evidence of a souterrain chamber here.

• SL025-025 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In rough grazing, at a break of slope on the S side of a ridge. A slightly raised circular area (43.4m E-W) defined by the remains of an earthen bank (Wth 3.7m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.45m) SW-NW and by a scarp elsewhere. The slope of the scarp (H 2.3m) is enhanced SE-S by the natural slope of the ridge. Gaps occur in the bank at NW (Wth 2m), W (Wth 3m) and WSW (Wth 1.2m). A shallow external depression (Wth 2m; D 0.3m) SW-W is possibly the remains of a silted-up fosse and it is skirted by a flat terrace (Wth 5m; H 0.6m) which may be a natural feature. The interior slopes down to E and is densely overgrown with ferns. Roughly in the centre of the E half is a low gently curving scarp (L c. 6m N-S). At the N end of the interior is an arc of sod-covered stones (6.5m E-W; c. 3m N-S; H 0.5m) W-E terminated at the W end by a field clearance cairn overgrown with bushes. A broad natural terrace surrounds the N perimeter of the rath. Hazel trees grow around the perimeter and there is a small hazel wood on the slope to E and SE.

• SL025-167 Standing stone
  Description

  In pasture, in a thicket of hawthorn and overgrowth, located on the S-facing foothills of the Ox Mountains, a few meters W of a S-flowing stream. The low, partly sod-covered ruins of a vernacular house are located c. 10m to N. Upright stone (1.42m; H 1.05m; T 0.3m at base, 0.20m at top), embedded in the ground, with long axis NW–SE. It is roughly triangular in shape, with the narrow sides inclining inwards towards a gently pointed apex. The broad NE side of the stone is almost entirely covered in moss, and an ash tree grows against this side. According to local tradition, this stone is regarded as marking a special location, possibly the site of a burial.

• SL025-168 Enclosure
  Description

  In pasture, located on a natural terrace, on a steep SE-facing slope in the southern foothills of the Ox Mountains. The enclosure is located at the N edge of the terrace where the slope rises steeply to NW. The relatively level terrace extends c. 50m to SE of the enclosure before the ground falls away again in a steep slope. There are extensive views E–SW, with Kesh Corrann and Knocknashee forming prominent landmarks in the distance to SE and S, respectively. The enclosure is not shown on any edition of the OS 6-inch maps. It consists of an oval area (16m NE–SW; 14m NW-SE) defined by a collapsed stone wall, with a broad gap (Wth c. 7m) at NE. The wall is evident as a low, largely sod-covered stone bank. The S half of the enclosure is built up slightly to compensate for the natural slope. At SE–SSW the wall/stone bank is flush with interior ground level but has a broadly slumped external slope (Wth slope c. 3m; ext. H 0.8m), at SW–WNW it is evident as low wall footings (Wth 1.2-1.4m), and at NW–N the outer edge is almost flush with exterior ground level but it has a broadly slumped interior slope (H 0.5-0.6m). The NW–N section of the wall appears somewhat linear and may have been incorporated into a NE–SW field boundary in the past, and it also incorporates field clearance stones.
