Recorded monuments

• WM031-004 Burial ground
  Description

  Situated in gently undulating pasture, c. 10m to SE of a stream running NE-SW, with fairly restricted views. Not depicted on OS maps. According to Rynne (1972-3, ) in 1967 burials were discovered in a naturally formed mound, when a large portion of the NW half was disturbed. This exposed a large number of human bones which were protruding from the face of the disturbed area and mostly concentrated within a distance of 4.2m from the summit of the mound (ibid). The burials (NMI Reg. no. 1A/177/67) consisted of adults and infants, the former being at various stratigraphic levels between about 0.3m and 0.5m below the surface, while the latter were found between approx. 0.15-0.25m in depth (ibid). The adult burials were in a disturbed state suggesting consecutive rather than communal burial (ibid). One of the lowest adult burials lay extended in a NE-SW direction and facing NE, which could suggest a Christian burial. The infant burials were relatively undisturbed and were mostly orientated NW-SE, but with the head facing NW. Monument described in 1983 as no surface remains visible. This is a roughly circular-shaped knoll which appears to be entirely natural. There are no surviving indications of any burials and no manmade mounds or hollows are discernible. Monument is not visible today on Digital Globe aerial photography. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien. Date of upload: 12 November 2019

  Description

OS 25-inch map as a rectangular-shaped structure in a complex of buildings annotated Old Court. According to O’Donovan (1837 OSNB 26, 7), there is a complex of buildings which ‘contains a ruin called the Old Court of Rosemount’. Building described in 1982 as the much altered gable of a 17th century house with a wide chimney breast leading to a high chimney. The remains of an unroofed cottage or farm outbuilding adjoin to W. The latter comprises of one wall and a number of cross walls. Although both structures were originally built of stone, there is a good deal of brick visible. Monument is not clearly visible today on Digital Globe aerial photography. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien. Date of upload: 13 November 2019
