Recorded monuments

• TS060-105 Enclosure
  Description

  In improved, lush pasture, on a S-facing slope. Monument may only be preserved where it is incorporated into townland boundary to SSW and WNW-sides. Earth and stone bank (ext. H of bank 1.25m max.) with whitethorn hedge on top defines SSW and WNW-sides. Break of slope (L 10-12m; long axis WNW-ESE) may correspond with the remainder of the SSW-side. Identified as a kink in an otherwise linear field boundary and as a cropmark on an aerial photograph (GSI S.660/659, 16/04/1974) which appears to form a rectangular enclosure. No visible surface trace of remainder of monument. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS068-026002 Church
  Description

  In pasture, on gentle E-facing slope in rolling pasture. Poorly preserved church (dims. c. 6.3m N-S; c. 17.8m E-W) composed of limestone rubble, roughly coursed. The inner face of the SW angle of church is best preserved, with only a short length of the S end of the W gable and the W end of the S wall (L 3.9m) surviving. The remainder of the W gable (Wth c. 6.3m) and S wall (total visible L 5.7m) are now mounds of rubble, as is the W end of the N wall. The remainder of the church is defined by a low platform, defined by scarp (H 0.63m above ext.). According to the OS letters (O'Flanagan 1930, vol. 2, 169) 'the church was built of limestone and lime and sand mortar. The original length is not ascertainable; the breadth was eighteen feet ten inches [5.7m]. Only six feet seven inches [2m] in height of the west gable remain, and attached to it eleven feet [3.3m] in length at ground of south sidewall remain, being the same height, namely six feet seven inches. The thickness is three feet four inches [1m]. The length at top is not the same as at the ground, the east part being destroyed more towards the top. The end of the west gable at north side is injured, as is also the centre as far as middle of the thickness on the interior'. The church is enclosed by an earthen bank (TS068-026001-) and a graveyard (TS068-026003-). Amongst the rubble of the church is a fragment from a side panel of a chest tomb (TS083-019080-), which originally came from a chest tomb (TS061-025146-) in the cathedral (TS061-025003-) on St. Patricksrock.

• TS068-026003 Graveyard
  Description

  In pasture, on gentle E-facing slope in rolling pastureland. This graveyard consists of an circular enclosure (TS068-026001-) which was subsequently enclosed within a rectangular enclosure (dims. 50m N-S; 37m E-W) defined by a stone wall (H c. 1.4m) capped with cement. There is a gate and double stile in the S wall and a stile in the middle of the E wall. The visibly legible headstones range in date from the 18th to the 21st century. The earliest dating to 1770 is located SE of the church and the latest dates to 2007. According to the OS letters (O'Flanagan 1930, vol. 2, 169) 'there is a considerable number of headstones together with three monumental stones lying horizontally to be seen in the burial ground'. A fragment from an altar tomb was found among the rubble of the church. This fragment, originally from St. Patrick's Cathedral on the Rock of Cashel, is currently in the South Tipperary County Museum (TS083-019080-).
