Recorded monuments

• TS045-015 Cairn - unclassified
  Description

  This was classified in the SMR (1992) and RMP (1997) as 'Cairn possible' having been identified as such on an aerial photograph (GSI R 303/02, 08/04/74). On S-facing slope of Knockbane Hill in upland area overlooking a tributary of the Aughaglawny river to the S. On field inspection in 2000 there was no visible trace of this above ground. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS045-016 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On steep NE-facing slope overlooking Aughaglawny river valley in mountainous area. Ringfort consists of a raised circular area (diam. 31m NE-SW) enclosed by an earthen bnak (Top wth 2m; base Wth. 3.5m; int. H 1.5m; ext. H 1m) and external fosse (Wth 3m; ext. D 0.3m) visible on upslope only from E through W to NW elsewhere the bank is reduced to a scarp (H 1-3m) on the downslope with no trace of the external fosse. Possible ramped entrance visible at E (Wth 3.5m) with second gap possibly of modern date at NW (Wth 2.5m). The inerior of the surface of the ringfort appears to be arranged on two levels with a higher surface on the upslope which was cut into, to produce a lower level on the downslope. This may be the result of modern quarrying or could be part of the original design of the interior of the ringfort, being cut into the NE face of a steep hillslope.

• TS046-034 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On flat poorly drained pasture in an upland region with good views in all directions. A slightly raised circular area (diam. N-S 35m) defined by a low poorly preserved earth and stone bank (Wth 1.5m-3m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.25m) consisting mainly of loosely piled stones with no evidence of an external fosse. There is a possible entrance gap (Wth 4m) at the W. The interior was waterlogged at time of inspection and the area around the monument is very wet which is not typical for a ringfort.
