- TS058-052 Enclosure
Description
In level improved pasture with moderate to good views in all directions. Not shown on any edition of the OS 6-inch map. Visible on an aerial photograph (G.S.I. R.533/2) as a circular area (diam. c. 15m). Not visible at ground level. An ESB pole stands on the approximate centre of the enclosure. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS058-080 Moated site
Description
In improved pasture, on the edge of a precipice with a small valley to the E, located within the NW angle of a large enclosure (TS058-081----), both being visible on an aerial photograph (ASIAP(303) 3-4, 13.09.2002). An enclosure (TS058-080001-) immediately N of the moated site shares the intervening fosse. A rectangular area (dims. 32m E-W; 26m N-S) defined by the remains of a low earthen bank (overall Wth 6.75m; Wth at top 2.8m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.45m) to N (L 26m) and S (L 26m) which has been reduced to scarp (Wth 2.7m; H 0.6m) to the E (L 26m) and W (L 22m). A shallow fosse is visible to W (overall Wth 6.1m; basal Wth 2.75m; D 0.1m) and N (overall Wth 5.9m; basal Wth 2.2m; D 0.2m). The fosse along the N side continues NE of the monument, down the precipice slope and appears to truncate the enclosing elements of the large enclosure. The interior slopes down gently to the E. Immediately E of the moated side, the NE angle of the large enclosure appears to be internally divided to create a D-shaped area (dims. 26m N-S; 23.5m E-W) defined by the curvilinear scarp (Wth 3.5m; H 0.75m) of the large enclosure from N-E-SE and by a levelled linear scarp (long axis E-W) (L 8m) and fosse (Wth 4.75m; D 0.18m) to S. The interior of this D-shaped area slopes gently to the E. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS058-080001 Enclosure
Description
In improved pasture, on the edge of a precipice with a small valley to the E. This sub-rectangular enclosure appears to overlie the N enclosing elements of a large enclosure (TS058-081---) and may be contemporary with a moated site (TS058-080----) which is located immediately to the S and with which it shares the intervening fosse, which continues eastward down the precipice slope and appears to truncate the enclosing elements of the large enclosure. The enclosure (dims. 22m E-W; 17m N-S) is defined by the remains of a low scarp (Wth 2.2m; H 0.4m) to S and W; a barely traceable scarp (Wth 1.35m; H 0.2m) to N; a natural linear scarp to E and by a conjoined fosse (overall Wth 5.9m; basal Wth 2.2m; D 0.2m) to S and the shallow remains of a fosse (overall Wth 4.1m; basal Wth 2m; D 0.05m) to W and N. There are the possible remains of an outer bank (overall Wth 5.3m; Wth at top 1.5m; int. H 0.05m; ext. H 0.4m) to W and N. The interior slopes to the E.

- TS058-081 Enclosure
Description
In improved pasture, utilising a natural precipice with overlooks a small valley to the E. The natural slope of the precipice continues to run southward beyond the southern limit of the monument. A moated site is located within the NW angle (TS058-080----) and an enclosure (TS058-080001-) at the N end appears to be built over the line of the N enclosing elements. This large oval enclosure (overall diam. 103m N-S; 55.5m E-W; narrowing to 14m E-W in the S) is visible on an aerial photograph (ASIAP(303) 3-4, 13.09.2002) and is clearly defined from N-E-SE by a curvilinear scarp (Wth 3.5m; H 0.75m); curvilinear berm (Wth 5.25m; H 0.6m) and natural counter scarp (Wth 13m; H 3.2m) which utilises the natural precipice slope; in the S it is defined by a low scarp (Wth 2m; H 0.15m) and in the W by the remains of a levelled bank (overall Wth 5.75m; basal Wth 2.5m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.05m). Apart from the moated site, the interior has several sub-divisions. In the NE angle, immediately E of the moated site, there is a D-shaped area (dims. 26m N-S; 23.5m E-W) which is divided from the rest of the interior to the S by a levelled linear scarp (long axis E-W) (L 8m) and fosse (Wth 4.75m; D 0.18m). The main portion of the interior is divided into two areas. That immediately S of the moated site consists of a large rectangular area (dims. 57m N-S; 44m E-W) defined by a steep scarp (Wth 5.5m; H 1.7m) to the E and low scarp (Wth 2m; H 0.15m) to the S and W. The interior slopes eastward and is slightly raised in the N sector; a field boundary, running ENE-WSW, truncates the interior off-centre to S. Another rectangular area (dims. 20m N-S; 14m E-W) adjoins to the S and is defined by levelled scarp (Wth 1.75m; H 0.2m) to N, its interior has a gentle S-facing slope.

- TS066-012 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture, on a general SW-facing slope. Oval area (dims 19m N-S; 16m E-W) defined by scarp (Wth 3.8m; H 1.25m). Possible berm (Wth 2.75m) NE-SW at base of scarp. Intervening fosse (Wth 9.35m; D 2.25m). Outer bank (Wth 7.6m; int. H 2.25m; ext. H 0.9m) NE-SE and SW-WNW is eroded by livestock WSW-WNW. Field boundary (long axis ENE-WSW) truncates fosse across NNW-sector. Interior is grass covered and slightly uneven. A low profile sub-circular area (dims. 3.5m N-S; 4.75m E-W) is within centre and a flat stone covered in lichens is in the SE-quadrant. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS066-013 Castle - ringwork
Description
In improved pasture, on a gentle SE-facing slope. Sub-rectangular area (dims 24m N-S; 25m E-W) defined by scarp (Wth 2.85-4.2m; H 1.4-2.75m) and external fosse (Wth 5.85-9.25m; D 0.25-1.6m). The scarp is best preserved to S, W and N-sides, being llower along the E-side. An entrance (Wth 6m) in the E-ESE appears to have been widened. The fosse is best preserved on S, W and N-sides and is narrowest and shallowest on the E side. There are ponds of water (diam. c. 10m) at SE and SW angles of the fosse. Interior has a gentle E-facing slope and has remains of cultivation furrows (long axis ESE-WNW). Large hole (dims. 1.5m NE-SW; 1.2m NW-SE) at S may be a collapsed animal burrow.

- TS066-191 Barrow - ring-barrow
Description
In pasture, on a S-facing slope where there are numerous dry, linear drainage channels. Identified during field survey by Alison McQueen and Vera Rahilly (17 February 2009). A circular area (dims. 5m N-S; 4.8m E-W) defined by a fosse (Wth 1.2-1.95m; D 0.1-0.11m) and the remains of a possible bank (Wth 2.1-2.35m; int. H 0.1-0.18m; ext. H 0.1-0.11m) in the SE quadrant. The interior has been raised on the S side to create a level platform within. A drainage channel running N-S abuts the fosse at the W.

- TS066-192 Enclosure
Description
In pasture, on a S-facing slope. Identified during field survey by Alison McQueen and Vera Rahilly (17 February 2009). A conjoined ditch barrow and ring-barrow (TS066-193001- and TS066-193002-) are located c. 25m to the NE. A sub-oval area (dims. 20m NW-SE; 15m NE-SW) defined by scarp (Wth 0.9m; H 0.2m) and fosse (overall Wth 2.2m; basal Wth 0.75m; D 0.13m) which is best defined SE-W-NW where it has been incorporated into shallow drainage channels. The scarp (Wth 1.1m; H 0.05m) is very gradual from NW-N-E. A linear drainage channel (long axis N-S; L 15m; Wth 1.25m; D 0.1-0.18m) transects the monument across the E sector. The interior is grass covered and has an uneven surface with a gentle S-facing slope. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of revised upload: 9 September 2014
