Description
In undulating pasture, on a SE-facing slope, overlooking fen to the E. A sub-oval area (dims. c. 42m NNW-SSE; c. 35m ENE-WSW) defined by scarp (Wth 1.4m; H 0.45m), fosse (overall Wth 4.65m; basal Wth 1.5m; D 0.35m) and external bank (overall Wth 5.95m; Wth at top 2m; int. H 0.35m; ext. H 1.75m) only clearly visible at E. Other very small areas are visible where only scarp is seen at S and NE. Otherwise exterior of bank is obscured by substantial piles of organic debris all around. The interior is completely overgrown with thorn and briar thickets and is inaccessible. A field boundary radiates from the E and a field boundary to the NW is gone. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS059-018 Ritual site - holy well
Description
In improved pasture, near the base of a NW-facing slope. Named 'Bridget's Well' on 1840 and 1904 ed. OS 6-inch map. Though not visible at ground level, this appears to be a natural spring well which abuts the outside angle of a field boundary. The spring drains into a linear channel (long-axis ENE-WSW) which extends for a short distance to the WSW before turning at an obtuse angle to the NW. According to local information, this was always a wet area. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS059-019 Ringfort - rath
Description
In improved, undulating pasture, on the upper edge of a prevalent NW-facing slope. Land also falls gently to WSW. Remains of a circular area (dims. c. 32m NE-SW; c. 26m NW-SE) truncated by a field boundary across the NE sector. The monument is defined by a low bank reduced to scarp in places, an intervening fosse and a low external bank which is very eroded by livestock. There is a possible entrance (Wth c. 4-5m) at S. The monument is fenced off by an electric fence. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS059-045 Enclosure
Description
In improved pasture, on the upper edge of a WSW-facing slope, overlooking fen to the WNW. The monument is depicted on the 1904 edition OS 6-inch map as the partial remains of a sub-oval enclosure (dims. c. 45m NNW-SSE; c. 37m ENE-WSW) open to the SE. It survives as the barely traceable remains of a sub-oval area (dims. 28m NNW-SSE; 24m ENE-WSW) defined by levelled scarp from SW-NNW and traces of a very shallow external fosse (Wth 9.2m; D 0.4m) from NNW-SW. There is an ESB pole within the fosse at the N. The interior has a gentle WSW-facing slope. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
