- TS077-014 Enclosure
Description
On flat ground at the base of gentle SW-facing slope surrounded by pasture. Enclosure not marked on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map and indicated as a roughly semi-circular enclosure on the 2nd (1906) ed. A townland boundary runs NW-SE through the S-SW sector and the enclosure is not depicted S of this boundary. It appears as a semi-circular cropmark on an aerial photograph (GSI S.639/40, 16-4-1974). The monument was inspected in 1982 and is described as being levelled. The field boundaries immediately N and E of the enclosure have been removed. Some of the debris from this clearance appears to have been dumped in the area of the enclosure. This area is now fenced off using an electric fence and has become overgrown with scrub. The bank of the enclosure is not discernible, though some vestiges of it may survive beneath the dumped material. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS077-015001 Church
Description
On flat ground in gently undulating terrain. On the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map a small rectangular enclosure is shown as 'Supposed Site of Church'. The church and earthworks (TS077-015002-) are indicated on the 2nd (1906) ed. OS 6-inch map. The depicted earthworks do not quite correspond with those visible in the field. Where the church is indicated on the map there is a roughly circular earthwork (dims. c. 12.2m N-S; 12.6m E-W) defined by a broad, partially levelled bank. An L-shaped bank runs N-S (L 10m) W of the earthwork and the S end turns westward for a short length. However, another rectangular enclosure (TS077-015004-) (dims. 17.7m N-S; 10.7m E-W), immediately to the NE, may be the church. It is defined by a broad, flattened bank to E and W sloping very gradually to interior. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of revised upload: 10 December 2014
- TS077-015002 Earthwork
Description
On flat ground in terrain gently undulating to E. W end of long rectangular field is occupied by earthworks. These earthworks bear some resemblence to those indicated on the 2nd (1906) ed.

The remainder of the field to E, beyond the earthworks indicated on the OS 6-inch map, has very slight undulations but is relatively flat with no definable structures.
