- TS058-056: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CTS058-056----. On a slight SW-facing slope in gently undulating improved pasture. Shown as a hachured roughly circular area on the 1906 edition of the OS 6-inch map but now consists of a roughly ovoid slightly raised area (dims. c. 14m N-S; c. 20m E-W) defined by a low flat-topped earthen bank (overall Wth 4m; Wth at top 1m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.4m) with an external fosse (overall Wth 5m; D 0.2m). The bank and fosse enclose the ringfort SW-NW only. The bank is absent NE-SE and the edge of the platform is defined by an earthen scarp (H 0.4m). The bank has been removed and the edge of the monument straightened off NW-NE and SE-SW. A farmyard extends to the edge of the ringfort at S. The original entrance is not recognisable. The interior is level and densely overgrown with thorn bushes across the N half.

- TS058-058001: Moated site, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CTS058-058001-. On top of a slight flat-topped rise in gently undulating pasture with an annexe (TS058-058002-) located immediately to the E. Roughly rectangular raised area (dims. 45m N-S; 28m E-W) with rounded corners defined by an internal broad earthen bank (overall Wth 6.5m; Wth at top 1.8m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 1.3m). At the external base of the bank is a wide flat-bottomed fosse (Wth at base 4m; D 0.3m) and a low broad external earthen bank (overall Wth 6.5m; Wth at top 2.2m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.15m). The internal bank is best preserved SW-NE. From NE-SE the internal bank is very degraded and has been removed SE-SW where an E-W orientated field bank lies along the line of the removed bank. From SE-SW the fosse has been almost completely infilled but the outer edge is barely discernible at ground level. The external bank is not visible at ground level N-NE and SE-SW. The original entrance is not recognisable. There is a modern break (Wth 2m) in the internal bank with a ramp into the fosse at the NE corner. The interior is level and clear of overgrowth.

- TS058-058002: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CTS058-058002-. On a very slight E-facing slope in gently undulating pasture with a moated site (TS058-058001-) located immediately to the W. Roughly circular slightly raised area (dims. 45m N-S; 48m E-W) defined by a low broad earthen bank (overall Wth 5.2m; Wth at top 1.8m; int. H 0.15m; ext. H 0.25m). The bank is absent N-SW and the enclosure is defined by a low broad earthen scarped edge (Wth 2.1m; 0.45m). A modern field boundary bank skirts the external base of the scarped edge SE-SW. The enclosure is defined SW-NW by the E side of the neighbouring moated site. The original entrance is not recognisable. The interior slopes slightly facing E and is clear of overgrowth.

- TS066-022: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CTS066-022----. In improved pasture, on a gentle S-facing slope. Identified as an oval enclosure (c. 30m WNW-ESE; c. 22m NNE-SSW) on the latest edition OS 6-inch map. According to the landowner it was a low clay mound with was levelled c. 25-30 years ago, c. 1970s. No visible surface trace. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS066-203: Barrow - ring-barrow, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CTS066-203----. In pasture. A small circular enclosure (diam. c. 14m) identified on Google Earth Pro imagery (imagery date 16 December 2016) by Jean-Charles Caillère. It appears to have an internal fosse and outer bank. The size and morphology of the enclosure suggest it is a ring-barrow. See attached photograph: TS066-203----_01 Image ©2019 CNEW/Airbus: Google Earth Pro satellite imagery (16 December 2016) Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 11 December 2019
- TS066-225: Barrow - ditch barrow, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CTS066-225----. In pasture. A circular enclosure (diam. c. 8m) defined by a fosse, visible on satellite imagery (© Google Earth, imagery date 20 January 2020), identified and reported by Jean-Charles Caillère. The size of the enclosure and the presence of other barrows in the surrounding area, including a ring-barrow (TS066-203----) c. 350m to the SSW, would suggest that this is a barrow.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. 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. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
