Recorded monuments

• TS071-011001 Church
  Description

  On the crest of a hill in undulating terrian, in grassland. According to Mullally (1862-63, 148) within the burial ground (TS071-011006-) there was a chapel. There is no visible trace of this at ground level and it is possible that the burial ground had no church associated with it. As the burial ground is not indicated on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map, it is possible that it is associated with famine burials. Within the area of the burial ground there is a collapsed standing stone (TS071-011004-) and in the ditch of the field boundary to the SW there is a sculptured pieta (TS071-011003-).

• TS071-011003 Stone sculpture
  Description

  On the crest of a hill in undulating terrian, in grassland. The sculpture is in the ditch of a field boundary which forms the SW portion of a burial ground (TS071-011006-). It is possible that the stone was brought here from elsewhere, as in the 19th century it appears to have been in the garden of the house nearest the burial ground (Mullally 1862-3, 148). This sculpture consists of a limestone slab (0.64m x 0.58m; D 0.19m) on which a pieta is carved in high relief. On the dexter side of Our Lady's head is carved IHS and on the sinister side MARIA. This sculpture appears to be that noted by Mullally (1862-63, 7) though he erroneously describes it as representing 'the Virgin Mary holding the infant Jesus in her lap'. The carving depicts the Virgin enthroned with the crucified Christ draped across her knees. The Virgin's face is badly worn and the facial features are barely distinquishable. She is wearing a voluminous veil which she is holding with her right hand at chest height, while her left hand is supporting Christ's head. Her robe is pleated, with folds falling down from her knees. Christ is depicted wearing a loincloth, loosely draped, his left arm hangs down while his crooked right arm is resting on the Virgin. The carving is described in detail by Cahill (1982). Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS071-011004 Standing stone
  Description

  On the crest of a hill in undulating terrain, in grassland. There are very good views in all directions with Slievenamon Mountain dominating from ESE-S. Standing stone of red sandstone (L 2.61m; 0.6m x 0.3m) which is lying prostrate where it appears to have collapsed. The stone has split into two, the upper portion (L 1.53m; 0.6m x 0.30m) tapers towards the top (0.21m x 0.21m). The lower portion (L 1.08m; 0.62m x 0.31m) is fairly consistent in width and thickness. It is not indicated on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map but is depicted and named 'Laghtnabar' on the 1904 ed. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of revised upload: 29 September 2014

• TS071-011006 Burial ground
  Description

  On the crest of a hill in undulating terrain, in grassland. According to Mullally (1862-63, 7) 'there is an appearance of an old boundary inclosing about an acre of land, which was an old burial ground, and contained a chapel. There is no vestige of the building; but in digging the place the labourers turned up large quantities of human bones - the place is held in great veneration by the neighbours'. There is no indication of a burial ground at this location on the 1st ((1840) ed. OS 6-inch map and it is indicated by a dashed line as a roughly rectangular area (map dims. 63m NE-SW; 41m NW-SE), with field boundaries forming the SE and SW enclosing element, on the 2nd (1904) ed. OS 6-inch map. The field boundaries are still evident but the NE and NW enclosing element is not visible at ground level. There is no visible evidence at ground level of this being a graveyard and there is also no indication of a church (TS071-011001-) at this location. Within the area of the burial ground there is a collapsed standing stone (TS071-011004-) and in the ditch of the field boundary to the SW there is a sculptured pieta (TS071-011003-) which may have been brought here from elsewhere as in the 19th century it appears to have been in the garden of the house nearest the burial ground (Mullally 1862-3, 148). There is a tradition of burials in the field and as a result it is not tilled. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of revised upload: 29 September 2014
