Description
National Monument No. 353. There are twenty-one standing stones in Cullaun Td., three of which have collapsed with an additional possible collapsed stone or rock outcrop. Also within this complex there is a megalithic folly consisting of a rounded boulder or roughout for a millstone resting on three small boulders. This megalithic structure was placed within a stone circle; only six of at least thirteen stones of the circle are now standing. A map published in the Ikerrin Survey (Stout 1984, 19), showing the distribution of standing stones, shows a total of 28 standing stones surviving and 14 removed. The stones range in height from 0.65m to 1.6m, usually have a rectangular plan and have no common alignment. A sample of these standing stones were recorded in detail: 1. Situated off the brow of a NNW-SSE ridge on a gentle SW-facing slope in undulating pasture-land with rock outcrop. The stone is just inside a gate, adjacent to the road. It is of sandstone, much split and weathered and is aligned on a NNW-SSE axis rising to the apex at SE. It is roughly rectangular in plan (H 0.65m; 0.53m x 0.26m) and rests on a grassy hummock with no evidence of packing-stones. A long, rectangular prostrate boulder (0.8m x 0.32m) lies immediately NNW of the site. 2. Situated on the SW slope of a NW-SE ridge, in undulating pasture-land with rock outcrop. A standing stone composed of sandstone with quartz inclusions, rectangular in plan (0.66m x 0.34m), aligned NE-SW with the apex to the SW. The base of the NW face spurs out by c. 0.15m and the top of the SE face is fractured into a stepped profile due to weathering. A grassy hummock has grown around the base of the stone and this has been hollowed out due to cattle erosion. 3. Situated on a gentle W-facing slope in undulating pasture-land. Another standing stone is visible on the brow of a hillock to SSW. This stone, a conglomerate sandstone and quartz stone with tiny flecks of mica, has a blocky base, almost square in plan (H 1.6m; 0.54m x 0.5m), aligned E-W and coming to an apex at E. The upper half is narrower and the stone is split on both flat surfaces. It is surrounded at the base by a grassy hummock which cattle have trampled. 4. Situated on a break in a gradual W-facing slope in undulating terrain. Other standing stones visible c. 30m to N (3) and also to SSE (5). A standing stone of sandstone with quartz and mica inclusions, rectangular in plan (H 1.37; 0.51m x 0.38m) and aligned N-S with its apex to N. 5. Situated on ground sloping gently to the S in undulating terrain; bedrock is exposed around the immediate base of the standing stone to the N and E. This stone is aligned N-S with the apex to the N but it appears to have split leaving a false top. The base is quite rectangular in plan (H 1.16m; 0.51m x 0.48m). Composed of sandstone with some mica. 6. Situated in a slight hollow on a very gradual W-facing slope in undulating pasture. Other standing stones are visible c. 100m to SE and c. 200m to SW and W. A stone wall in the immediate vicinity may be preventing intervisibility with other sites. The stone appears to have naturally split in two; loose stones around the base appear to be fragments of the standing stone. It is rectangular in plan (H 0.96m; 0.41m x 0.29m), aligned E-W and is composed of sandstone and mica. 7. Situated on a break in a SW-facing slope in very undulating pasture. Other standing stones are visible c. 100m to N, c. 60m to E, to SSW and SW and a ringfort (18:13) is visible to SW. This stone is rectangular in plan (H 0.95m; 0.55m x 0.26 which narrows to 0.11m to S), aligned N-S with its apex to N. It is of sandstone with a few small quartz pebble inclusions. 8. Situated on a SSW slope off the crest of a NW-SE ridge. A number of standing stones are visible to the SE, SW, and W-WSW; no. 7 is c. 60m to the W. A weathered rectangular block composed of sandstone with a lot of quartz pebble inclusions. A number of stones at the base appear to have split from the standing stone. It has a rectangular base plan (H 1.55m; 0.72m x 0.26 which narrows to 0.19m to S). In 2002 archaeological monitoring by Anne-Marie Lennon on all ground disturbance near this site revealed nothing of archaeological interest. This monitoring was carried out under Licence No. 02E1125 (Bennett 2004, 476). Irish Grid Ref. of monitoring 21944/18391.

Description
In undulating pasture, on the landscaped estate of Timoney Park. The 19th century private burial ground of the Hutchinson family of Timoney Park is located 25m to N. One of nine standing stones (TN018-012001-/009-) identified in this field and recorded in 1934-36 by the Inspector of National Monuments and marked as stone 8A on a map of a group of 221 standing stones, of which 173 stones were located in the townland of Timoney Hills and 48 standing stones in the adjoining townland of Cullaun. A map published in the Archaeological Survey of Ikerrin depicts 245 standing stones, 70 of which had been removed, and five cairns, which have also been removed (Stout 1984, 19). Seven of the nine orthostats in this field were located. Stones 8D (TN018-012004-) and 8G (TN018-012007-) could not be located in this field and were presumably removed or levelled after 1934-36. Present remains consist of a low recumbent grass-covered stone which may be the remains of broken or partially destroyed standing stone identified in 1934-36 as stone 8A. National Monument No. 353. This group of standing stones in the townlands of Timoney Hills and Cullaun were described in 1936 by the Inspector of National Monuments as following: 'Though a number of stones have been eliminated, the remainder numbering 221 (173 in Timoney Hills and 48 in Cullaun) are a most remarkable group. The stones are not, apparently, arranged on any particular system except for one obvious stone circle in Cullaun. They are all of red sandstone or conglomerate of the same period and stand or stood from 3 to 6 feet [0.9-1.8m] in height over the ground, the average height of the larger ones being about 5 feet 1.5m]' (SMR File). The location of these stones on the Parker-Hutchinson estate of Timoney Park casts doubt on the antiquity of these monuments. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 09 February 2015

A map published in the Archaeological Survey of Ikerrin depicts 245 standing stones, 70 of which had been removed, and five cairns, which have also been removed (Stout 1984, 19). Thirteen of the twenty orthostats in this field were located. No surface remains visible of standing stone identified in 1934-36 as stone 9C1. This group of standing stones in the townlands of Timoney Hills and Cullaun were described in 1936 by the Inspector of National Monuments as following: 'Though a number of stones have been eliminated, the remainder numbering 221 (173 in Timoney Hills and 48 in Cullaun) are a most remarkable group. The stones are not, apparently, arranged on any particular system except for one obvious stone circle in Cullaun. They are all of red sandstone or conglomerate of the same period and stand or stood from 3 to 6 feet [0.9-1.8m] in height over the ground, the average height of the larger ones being about 5 feet 1.5m]' (SMR File). The location of these stones on the Parker-Hutchinson estate of Timoney Park casts doubt on the antiquity of these monuments. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of revised upload: 20 February 2015

Description
In undulating pasture, on the landscaped estate of Timoney Park. One of sixteen standing stones (TN018-012010-/013-; TN018-012018-/029-) that formed a circular pattern which was recorded as a stone circle by the Inspector of National Monuments in 1936 (SMR File).

- TN018-012014 Standing stone
Description
In undulating pasture, on the landscaped estate of Timoney Park. One of twenty standing stones (TN018-012010-/029-) identified in this field. One of four stones recorded in 1934-36 where they are depicted in a four-poster arrangement standing in the centre of a possible stone circle consisting of 14 standing stones (TN018-012010-/029-). It appears that these became part of a folly when a millstone was placed on top in recent times. No millstone is shown sitting on top of these stones on the location map. This field was known locally as the ‘racecourse field’ (Ryan 1980, 17). National Monument No. 353. Recorded in 1934-36 by the Inspector of National Monuments and marked as stone 9W on a map of a group of 221 standing stones, of which 173 stones were located in the townland of Timoney Hills and 48 standing stones in the adjoining townland of Cullaun. A map published in the Archaeological Survey of Ikerrin depicts 245 standing stones, 70 of which had been removed, and five cairns, which have also been removed (Stout 1984, 19). Thirteen of the twenty orthostats in this field were located. Present remains consist of a low upright stone (H 0.36m) with three other small orthostats (TN018-012014-/017-) contiguous to each other in a small circular arrangement which support a circular millstone (diam. 1.18m; T 0.23m). This group of standing stones in the townlands of Timoney Hills and Cullaun were described in 1936 by the Inspector of National Monuments as following: 'Though a number of stones have been eliminated, the remainder numbering 221 (173 in Timoney Hills and 48 in Cullaun) are a most remarkable group.

In undulating pasture, on the landscaped estate of Timoney Park. One of sixteen standing stones (TN018-012010-/013-; TN018-012018-/029-) that formed a circular pattern which was recorded as a stone circle by the Inspector of National Monuments in 1936 (SMR File). This field was known locally as the ‘racecourse field’ (Ryan 1980, 17). National Monument No. 353. Recorded in 1934-36 by the Inspector of National Monuments and marked as stone 9N on a map of a group of 221 standing stones, of which 173 stones were located in the townland of Timoney Hills and 48 standing stones in the adjoining townland of Cullaun. A map published in the Archaeological Survey of Ikerrin depicts 245 standing stones, 70 of which had been removed, and five cairns, which have also been removed (Stout 1984, 19). Thirteen of the twenty orthostats in this field were located. No surface remains visible of stone 9N. This group of standing stones in the townlands of Timoney Hills and Cullaun were described in 1936 by the Inspector of National Monuments as following: 'Though a number of stones have been eliminated, the remainder numbering 221 (173 in Timoney Hills and 48 in Cullaun) are a most remarkable group. The stones are not, apparently, arranged on any particular system except for one obvious stone circle in Cullaun. They are all of red sandstone or conglomerate of the same period and stand or stood from 3 to 6 feet [0.9-1.8m] in height over the ground, the average height of the larger ones being about 5 feet 1.5m]' (SMR File). The location of these stones on the Parker-Hutchinson estate of Timoney Park casts doubt on the antiquity of these monuments. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of revised upload: 20 February 2015

The stones are not, apparently, arranged on any particular system except for one obvious stone circle in Cullaun. They are all of red sandstone or conglomerate of the same period and stand or stood from 3 to 6 feet [0.9-1.8m] in height over the ground, the average height of the larger ones being about 5 feet 1.5m]' (SMR File). The location of these stones on the Parker-Hutchinson estate of Timoney Park casts doubt on the antiquity of these monuments. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 10 February 2015
- TN018-012045 Standing stone
Description
In undulating pasture, on the landscaped estate of Timoney Park. Five standing stones (TN018-012043-/048-) identified in this field and recorded in 1934-36 by the Inspector of National Monuments, this stone in its current location was not marked on the 1934-36 map which shows a group of 221 standing stones, of which 173 stones were located in the townland of Timoney Hills and 48 standing stones in the adjoining townland of Cullaun. A map published in the Archaeological Survey of Ikerrin depicts 245 standing stones, 70 of which had been removed, and five cairns, which have also been removed (Stout 1984, 19). Three of the five orthostats in this field were located. Present remains consist of a low standing stone (H 0.97m x 0.47m x 0.23m) rectangular in section and orientated N-S on its long axis. This stone may have been one of the other stones marked on the 1934-36 map but moved in recent times to its current location. This group of standing stones in the townlands of Timoney Hills and Cullaun were described in 1934 by the Inspector of National Monuments as following: 'Though a number of stones have been eliminated, the remainder numbering 221 (173 in Timoney Hills and 48 in Cullaun) are a most remarkable group. The stones are not, apparently, arranged on any particular system except for one obvious stone circle in Cullaun.

- TN018-013 Ringfort - cashel
Description
Situated in rolling pastureland in the midst of Cullaun (Timoney) standing stones (TN018-015----). The site utilises a natural hillock which has been built up around the edge with clay faced with stone to form a level interior. A slightly oval area (diam. 25.3m N-S; 28.8m E-W) defined by a stone wall (Wth 1.5m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.7m) which is quite eroded. Stones were probably robbed to repair or build surrounding stone walls which run close to the W and S of the site. An entrance (Wth 2m) noted in the E sector (Stout 1984, 55) has been obscured by scrub and collapse and there is no evidence of an outer fosse. A mixture of trees, including ash, grow in the interior. The site is not typical in this area. Although there is a lot of outcrop this is the only cashel. Possibly a landscape feature. 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).

- TN018-014 Enclosure
Description
Situated on SE facing slope on gentle slope in undulating terrain. Site overlooks bog to SE. Located immidiately E of Cullaun stone (TN018-012) but no standing stones are visible from site. Site not marked on 1st (1843) or 2nd (1904) ed. OS 6-inch map. Length of what appears to be a stoney bank (16m L; W 1.2m crest, 2.6m base; int. H 1m; ext. H 0.67m), now grassed over, partially encloses N half of a hollow area. It would appear to be upcast from quarrying. This upcast has itself been quarried into in NE quad. According to a local source the site was a ringfort which has been quarried in the 1930's to supply material for the construction of a nearby lane (Stout 1984, 55). Large boulder has been dumped on site in NW sector. Site now appears as a disused quarry which may have been an antiquity.
