• TN020-099 Barrow - ring-barrow
  Description

  Situated in fields to the W of Nenagh Mart, behind St Patrick's Terrace on O'Growney Street. A number of nine possible barrows showed up on aerial photographs (OSAP 3585, 16.5.1986). These could also have been formed from cattle feeding rings, though the variation in dimensions suggests otherwise. The land rises gradually to the S. There are six possible ring-barrows (TN020-099-005) in this field, roughly in a diamond-shaped arrangement. The most southerly ring-barrow is on a rise in the field, while the remainder are slightly below this level. All the sites are very subtle comprising a fosse and slight internal mound. They are all roughly circular. N site: Diam. 8m N-S; 7.32m E-W; diam. of mound 2.05-2.1m; H from mound to fosse 0.11m; D of fosse 0.04m. W site: Diam. 6.4m N-S; 5.94m E-W; diam. of mound 1.86-2m; H from mound to fosse 0.03m; D of fosse 0.1m. E site: Diam. 6.11m N-S; 6.8m E-W; diam. of mound 2.52-2.19m; H from mound to fosse 0.07m; D of fosse 0.05m. S site: Diam. 8.5m N-S; 9.5m E-W; diam. of mound 3.1m; H from mound to fosse 0.05m; D of fosse 0.1m. The S site is quite denuded at E and it is difficult to determine its extent. The mound itself, however, is quite visible as is the fosse at W; it shows up well on the aerial photograph. 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).
