Recorded monuments

• TS077-018 Enclosure
  Description

  On a gradual E-facing slope in gently undulating terrain. According to Cahill (1982) the enclosure was levelled c. 1940. The landowner remembers a slight bank delineating the enclosure. The area of the monument is now an orchard. There is a slight rise which may delimit the E quadrant. The enclosure abutted the townland boundary in the W quadrant, this boundary is still in situ. On the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map a limekiln is indicated in the NE sector of the enclosure. On the 2nd (1906) ed. (dims. c. 63m N-S; c. 53m E-W) the monument is indicated as an oval enclosure surrounded by a bank with a fosse depicted in the N sector. The enclosure is truncated by a townland boundary in the W quadrant. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS077-019 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On flat, level ground with a stream flowing WNW-ESE c. 10m SW of ringfort, in pasture. The stream has been channalised into the field ditch. The ringfort has been ploughed out but is still discernible as a raised, roughly circular area (diam. 30.2m N-S; 29.6m E-W), defined by scarp which is best preserved in the NW sector (H 0.25m). Also in this sector there is a slight trace of an external fosse (Wth 2.5m; D 0.12m). The E quadrant extends out to the field boundary, immediately E of the ringfort, the ditch of which is waterlogged. This field boundary kinks out slightly to respect the enclosure. The field boundary between the stream and Grangebeg townland boundary to N has been removed. The monument was visited in 1982 and was described as being in poor condition with a very denuded bank and an infilled and waterlogged fosse, diam. 33m (Cahill 1982, unpublished).

• TS077-020001 Church
  Description

  On flat ground in very gently undulating terrain, under grass. The church is not indicated on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map though it is named 'Templeea' and the enclosing oval graveyard (TS077-020002-) is depicted. The 'Site of' the church is depicted in the E quadrant of the enclosure on the 2nd (1906) ed. OS 6-inch map. The church is visible as a denuded, sub-rectangular area (dims. 9.4m NNW-SSE; 13.7m ENE-WSW), defined by a broad earthen bank (Wth 2m crest; 4m base; int. H 0.26m; ext. H 0.25m) with a lot of stones protruding, especially at the W angle. The bank is denuded in the WSW, but there is no clear entrance. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS077-020002 Ecclesiastical enclosure
  Description

  On flat ground in very gently undulating terrain, under grass. Oval enclosure (diam. 74m N-S; 55m E-W) hachured and called 'Grave Yard' on 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map. No visible trace of headstones or upright stones indicating the graveyard (TS077-020003-). Site of church (TS077-020001-) indicated on the latest ed. OS 6-inch map in the E quadrant. According to Cahill (1982 unpublished) 'a farm worker reported that a field adjoining the church site was ploughed for [the] first time in 1973 and a large amount of pottery and iron was turned up'. Defined by a low earthen bank (Wth 3.1m crest, 5.5m base; int. H 0.14m; ext. H 0.35) in the S sector which has been largely reduced to scarp, particularly in SW quadrant. From W-N-E the bank is incorporated in hedgerow, with a post and wire electric fence on the inside. There is a low mound in the interior with a high stone content, possibly building collapse.

• TS077-020003 Graveyard
  Description

  On flat ground in very gently undulating terrain, under grass. Oval enclosure (TS077-020002-) (diam. 74m N-S; 55m E-W) hachured and called 'Grave Yard' on 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map, however, by the 1906 ed. it appears to be disused, as indicated on this map. There is no visible trace of any headstones or upright stones indicating the graveyard. The site of the church (TS077-020001-) is indicated on the 1906 ed. OS 6-inch map in the E quadrant. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS077-040 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a SW-facing slope, stream running NW-SE immediately S of monument. In relatively flat terrain, undulating gently. Surrounded W-N-E by pasture. Circular area (diam. 32m N-S and E-W) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 2.3m crest, 4.4m base; int. H 0.19m; ext. H 0.6m) with no evidence of external fosse. Entrance in E quadrant (Wth 2.6m). Trees and scrub in interior which slopes to SW. Along SW edge there is a lot of heavy scrub. Bank is clear in NE and SE quadrants, where it is broad with stone protruding. A field bank runs concentric with the NE bank of the ringfort, creating the impression of an external fosse. Drainage works carried out on the adjacent stream have resulted in a deepening and channelising of the stream, the upcast from which has been dumped 4m from the edge of the stream, onto the SW side of the ringfort, along with uprooted scrub formerly along the edge of the stream.

• TS077-042 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In very flat terrain, under grass with some natural hillocks to NE. Stream runs along W side of monument, it appears to be channelised. Ringfort (TS077-040----) situated c. 270m to NE, not visible due to hedgerow. Monument appears to have been partially levelled. Roughly oval enclosure (diam. 51m N-S; 61m E-W) defined by an inner bank (Wth 3.2m crest, 6m base; int. H 0.41m; ext. H 0.78m); fosse (Wth 2.4m; D 0.42m); outer bank (Wth 2.1m crest, 4.4m base; ext. H 0.44m); outer fosse (Wth 1.9m; D 0.19m) and counterscarp. In some places there is an indication of a third bank, particularly at the entrance in the SE quadrant. Entrance (Wth 6.6m) with causeway over the inner and outer fosse. Interior has internal division in NE quadrant. In the NNE quadrant the outer bank and counterscarp are levelled and a field boundary runs from W to N concentrically with NW quadrant, in places probably utilising the outer bank. The outer bank and counterscarp reappear in the SSW sector. In the N quadrant the inner bank is denuded for a length of 6m. SE of the ringfort there is a possible hollow-way (Wth 3.5m; L c. 80m) defined by a bank to N (Wth 2.4m crest, 8.6m base; int. H 0.51m; ext. H 0.44m) and to S (Wth 1.6m crest; 3.4m base; int. H 0.37m; ext. H 0.17m), though the latter bank is quite denuded in places. This possible roadway runs E-W and at its closest is 8m S of the ringfort. This field is depicted on the OS 6-inch map as being liable to flood and it is obvious from other channels in the field that a lot of drainage work has been carried out. This feature may be part of this drainage activity. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS077-127 Enclosure
  Description

  In tillage. A circular enclosure (diam. c. 35-40m) identified as a cropmark on satellite imagery (Google Earth satellite imagery, 14 July 2019) by Jean-Charles Caillère. It is also visible on satellite imagery taken in April 2013 where it appears to have an outer fosse (Google Earth satellite imagery, 26 April 2013). There is another enclosure (TS077-126----), also identified as a cropmark, c. 85m to the NW and a church (TS077-020001-), ecclesiastical enclosure (TS077-020002-) and graveyard (TS077-020003-) c. 80m to the SW.
