• TN015-028 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Located on a slight rise in undulating pastureland. Depicted as a roughly circular area on the 1st ed. OS 6-inch map, but by the later ed. (1903) the NE quadrant had been removed. Although levelled, the W sector is still discernible with a raised interior (H 0.35m), external fosse (Wth 3.2m; D 0.1m) and outer bank (Wth 3.8m; ext. H 0.25m) (approx. diam. c. 56m N-S). 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

• TN015-031 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Located on a W-facing slope in gently undulating pasture. Depicted on the latest ed. OS 6-inch map as a circular area (diam. 36m) with field boundaries skirting the external circumference. The NE quadrant has been completely levelled since the site was last visited in 1957. The site is defined by an earth and stone bank (Wth 2.2m; int. H 0.55; ext. H 0.4m) the external face of which appears to have been truncated. An external fosse was visible at S and W in 1957, however only a very slight fosse is now visible (OPW Correspondence, 2.8.1957). No visible entrance feature. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary.
