- TS082-053 Ringfort - rath
Description
In woodland in Glenbawn which was extant on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map, and is designated 'Fox Covert' on the 1904-5 ed. (diam. c. 47m). It is located on ground which falls steeply to the S and SW. The ringfort is heavily overgrown, mostly with rhododendrons and young ash trees. The S edge is defined by scarp (H 1.25m) with possible traces of an earthen and stone bank. In the S quadrant there is a external fosse (Wth 2.6m; D 0.7-0.8m) but this may be the result of more recent ground disturbance as there are dumps of earth within the fosse. In the W quadrant the scarp survives (H 1.7m) but there is no evidence of an external fosse. In the N quadrant the edge of the ringfort becomes undiscernible, it is possibly levelled, though it is obscured by vegetation. Several active bee-hives have been placed in the N quadrant making close examination of this area impossible. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 04 February 2014
- TS082-103 Burial ground
Description
On a natural terrace on a SE facing slope in undulating terrain with ground falling beyond the burial ground to the S. Irregular-shaped enclosure (diam. 25m NE-SW; 43m NW-SE) enclosed by a broad, flattened, stoney bank (Wth 3.5m top; 9.2m base; H above int. 0.25m; H above ext. 0.67m) and a V-shaped fosse (Wth 3.8m; D 1.6m) uncovered during archaeological testing (05E1091). During the course of this testing 3/4 burials were uncovered, including two children and at least 1 adult, of which two partial articulated skeletons were roughly aligned E-W suggesting an Early Medieval date for the enclosure. A tree-ring is located immediately W of the burial ground. There is a suggestion of an other bank c. 16m S and SW of the burial ground and this possible outer bank appears to continue within the interior of the tree-ring. However, the area between the possible outer bank and the burial ground appears quite disturbed, possibly as a result of localised quarrying and the bank may be associated with landscaping on Marlfield demesne.

- TS082-104 House - Neolithic
Description
On the edge of a shallow depression, which appears to have been a lake or marsh, on a flat platform above the flood plain of the River Suir, which flows E-W c. 850m to the S. A Neolithic house (dims. c. 8.5m ENE-WSW x 8m NNW-SSE) was uncovered during archaeological testing in advance of a proposed development (Lennon 2007). The house was delimited by a foundation trench within which were set a series of stake-holes of squared upright posts. Each corner is defined by a large post-hole. Two other post-holes were associated with the house, one (diam. 0.2m) inside the eastern edge of the foundation trench and another (diam. 0.5m) outside the house. A possible internal slot trench (Wth 0.15m) was uncovered 0.2m S of the foundation trench. Finds included flint and chert waste flakes, cores and debitage, indicating that arrowheads were being produced at the site. This assemblage has been dated to the beginning of the Middle Neolithic period. Fragments of carinated Neolithic pottery were also recovered which appear to represent several vessels. A soil sample yielded grains of emmer wheat, some charcoal remnants from an oak species and a charred hazelnut shell. The latter was used to obtain a radiocarbon date, which calibrated dated to between 3377 and 3634 B.C. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 07 June 2012
- TS083-013 Ringfort - rath
Description
On the break of an E-facing slope, in undulating pasture. Grass-covered, raised, roughly circular area (dims. 38m N-S; 39m E-W) with denuded earth and stone bank, mostly reduced to scarp (H 0.5-1.31m W and E sectors respectively). Scarp higher on downslope side. Field boundary runs N-S immediately W of W bank and townland boundary runs E-W to N of monument. Limited quarrying in the SW quadrant at the base of bank. There is a quarry pit E of the ringfort. There is no visible evidence of an external fosse and no visible entrance, however, there may have been an entrance in the W quadrant where the bank is much denuded.

- TS083-016 Mill - unclassified
Description
On flat terrain in river valley of Suir, low-lying. In the 17th century there were two mills in 'Abyneslewnaght' on the land of 'Patricke Goegh of Kilmaniheen in the County of Waterford Esqr Irish Papist' (Simington 1931, vol. 1, 307). On this land 'stands the walls of an old Aby, one grist mill and one tuckinge Mill, both lately rebuilt by Thomas Batty of Clonmell Esqr' (ibid.). Abyneslewnaght has been identified with Inishlounaght townland and 200m SW of the site of the abbey, just within Marlfield townland, there was a mill marked 'Abbey Mill' on the 1st (1840-41) ed. OS 6-inch map. There is no mill marked on 1950-51 OS revision and the mill has been demolished. However, there are the remains of a wall with lime render which was probably part of the mill complex and which now acts as a field boundary. A fast flowing channelised mill race also survives.
