The nave and chancel are described as in ruins in 1615 (Anon. 1902, 110). The 19th century C of I church of St Otteran, a corruption of St Fuathráin, is now on the site and there are no visible remains of an earlier structure.

  Description

  Situated on a slight E-W rise, c. 230m S of the W-E River Suir. Burnt mound material was first identified in centre-line testing (02E0441) for the N 25 Waterford city by-pass during 2002 (O'Neill 2004b), and excavated (03E0365) during 2003 as Killoteran 3 (Clarke 2006c). It consisted of a widely dispersed spread (dims. 12m N-S; 7m E-W; T 0.06-0.3m) overlying two small pits (dims. 1.23m x 0.83m; D 0.23m: 0.92m x 0.8m; D 0.28m) and one irregularly oval pit (2.87m NW-SE; 1.2m NE-SW; D 0.1-0.4m) with some post-holes and stake-holes (Clarke 2003, 14-8). There was no recognisable trough, although the largest pit may have functioned as one, and all the pits contained some burnt stone. (Clarke and Ginn 2011a) Clarke, L.

• WA017-119 Water mill - vertical-wheeled
  Description

  Situated in the valley of the S-N Ballymoat stream with the canalised stream c. 100m to the E. First identified as Site 4 at Adamstown, in centre-line testing (03E0406) for the N 25 Waterford City by-pass (Russell 2006e), and excavated with the same licence during 2004 as Killoteran 9 (Murphy 2007) and 2005 (Russell (2008b). A leat (Wth 3m) led to a semicircular mill-pond (diam. c. 7m) immediately SW of the mill. Two dams (L c. 5m) set 3.5m apart and consisting of oak planks set longditudinally in a slotted oak base-plate controlled the water, which could be released through sluices in the dams. The wheel housing (dims. 2m x 1.5m) was lined with planks as was its floor. The mill-house was on the bank to the NW, and two of its walls were identified. A small timber and wattle-lined tail-race (Wth 2m) was also identified. Fragments of the mill mechanism, including paddles from the wheel, and discarded millstones made of a local sandstone were recovered. Two timbers produce C14 dates of AD 410-650 and AD 340-600.
