- TN017-032 Ringfort - rath
Description
Located on a gentle SE-facing slope in gently undulating marshy terrain. A river runs c. 100m N and E of the site. Outlined as a small grove of trees on the 1st ed. (1840) and current (1901-05) OS 6-inch maps. The site has been levelled but is visible as a slightly raised circular area (diam. 28m N-S and E-W) which rises slightly towards the centre with evidence of a much denuded bank (Wth 2.2m; int. H 0.12m; ext. H 0.4m) and shallow outer fosse (Wth 1.2-1.6m; D 0.12m). There are four tree stumps roughly in line NW-SE across the centre of the interior. The indication on the OS 6-inch maps would suggest a tree-ring classification for this site, however it was inspected in 1957 before it was levelled and was confidently described as an earthen ringfort with bank (Wth 1.2m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 0.84m) and very shallow fosse (Wth 1.5m), badly overgrown with scrub (OPW files, 17.7.1957). 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). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
- TN017-054 Ringfort - rath
Description
Situated on a low hillock on a N-S ridge which slopes to the SE in undulating pastureland. Indicated as a large, roughly circular enclosure on the 1st ed. (1840) OS 6-inch map, however on the current (1901-05) edition only the S half is hachured while the N half appears to have been replaced by a field boundary. Although levelled, the circular outline is still discernible (diam. 29m N-S; 30m E-W) with traces of a scarp (H 0.56m), a fosse (Wth 2.6m; D 0.7m) and an outer bank only visible at W (Wth 2.1m; ext. H 0.55m). A semicircular or L-shaped bank (Wth 1.7m) in the interior in the NE sector may be the remnant of a later field boundary. A possible moated site (TN017-091----) is located c. 80m to the WSW. 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).

- TN017-057 Enclosure
Description
Situated in gently undulating terrain sloping to the E, under pasture. A roughly triangular-shaped field (dims. 116m N-S; 120m E-W) enclosed by a bank (Wth 1.6m; 0.5-0.85m int. H) of earth and stone with rounded corners marked 'Glebe' on the 1st ed. (1840) OS 6-inch map. A river runs roughly E-W c. 100m N-NW of this 'glebe'. The field is probably associated with Glebe House c. 300m to the NW. 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).

- TN017-058 Ringfort - rath
Description
Situated in wet, marshy grassland on the summit of a low NW-SE ridge in undulating pastureland. A river runs NW-SE c. 20m E of the site. A circular area (diam. 30.2m N-S) defined by an earth and stone bank (Wth 1.2m; int. H 0.58m; ext. H 1.08m) and an external fosse (Wth 1.5m; D 0.32m) which has been recut and maintained as a field drainage ditch. The site slopes to the SW with the natural fall of the ridge. The interior is wet and reedy with scrub and saplings growing on the bank. There is an entrance gap (Wth 1.8m) at SW with a slight hint of a causeway over the fosse (Wth c. 2.3m) and several other narrow breaks in the bank at NE, NW, W and SW. 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).

- TN017-059 Enclosure
Description
Situated in gently undulating terrain, in fairly wet, reclaimed pasture. A river flows c. 20m to the E of the site on fairly level ground. Marked as a circular enclosure with trees in the interior, possibly a tree-ring, on the 1st ed. (1840) OS 6-inch map. Site clearly visible as a raised circular area (diam. 30m N-S; 29.8m E-W) defined by a scarp (H 0.46m) and a narrow, shallow fosse (Wth 2.2m; D 0.14m). 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).

- TN017-060 Ringfort - rath
Description
Situated on a gentle NE-facing slope in gently undulating pastureland c. 100m NE of Dangansallagh House. A circular area (diam. 29.3m N-S and E-W) defined by an earth and stone bank (Wth 1.2m; int. H 0.26; ext. H 0.71m) and a shallow external fosse (Wth 1.6m; ext. H 0.17m) which may be the result of cattle trampling. Small deciduous trees grow around the bank and in the interior. Some wood and boulders have been dumped in the centre of the site which appears to be a tree-ring possibly utilising an existing ringfort. 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).

- TN017-091 Moated site
Description
