  Description

  Situated on a terrace on a NW-facing slope, in undulating terrain. Depicted as a small circular enclosure on the 1st ed. (1843) OS 6-inch map. Not visible at ground level. According to the landowner the site was levelled in the 1940s. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002).

  Description

  Situated on the NE-facing slope of a hill, in pasture. Depicted as a D-shaped enclosure on the st ed. OS 6-inch map and as a circular area on the latest ed.

The site was classified as a ringfort after field inspection in 1959 (OPW files). On the aerial photograph it appears to have been levelled by 1968 (CUCAP, AVN 60), though it was still clearly definable by a surviving fosse.

• TN027-153 Road - road/trackway
  Description

  Situated on a NW-facing slope in pasture. A possible roadway indicated as a townland boundary on the 1904 ed. OS 6-inch map, oriented NW-SE. It is not depicted on the 1840 edition. In the OS Name Books (1840) there is a reference to 'Bohernagarranbawn (Bothar a Ghearain Bhain/Road of the White Garon (Horse)). This “White Horse Track” was so called, on account of a white horse carrying books along it belonging to the friars of Tyone and Holy Cross, this horse would bring the books (it is said) without a leader from one place to the other and always kept the same track'. The townland boundary consists of an earthen bank with some stones (Wth 2-2.5m; c. 0.8-1m H) and no ditch on either side. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002).
