Recorded monuments

• WM036-026 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on the summit of a small ridge running N-S, in otherwise rough pasture with limited views of the surrounding landscape. Depicted on the revised 1910 ed. OS 25-inch map as a subcircular-shaped tree-planted enclosure, possibly a tree-ring associated with Hall House located 750m to SE. Monument described in 1977 as a roughly circular-shaped area (diam. 27m) enclosed by a bank reduced to a scarp in places. A bank is visible from NW-N-NE and from SE-S-SW and a steep scarp is present elsewhere. There are rocks protruding from the face of the scarp intermittently. A fosse cuts deeply through the ridge (at right angles to its axis) from NW-N-NE and from SE-S-SW and there is little sign of it elsewhere. There is no indication of an original entrance. The interior has a gradual E-facing slope and there are no obvious features. Monument is visible today as a roughly circular-shaped tree-lined earthwork on Digital Globe aerial photography. Possibly as ringfort that was reused as a tree-ring in the post 1700 period. Possibly not an antiquity but a designed landscape feature. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien.

• WM036-027 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on a low ridge running N-S, in otherwise rough wet pasture. Depicted on the revised 1910 ed. OS 25-inch map as a subcircular-shaped tree-planted enclosure. Monument described in 1977 as a large roughly circular-shaped platform (diam. 36m) defined by a steep scarp and external fosse. The site was reused as a tree ring in more recent times and both scarp and fosse have been disturbed. There is no sign of an entrance. The interior of the site is level to N and W but slopes downwards to S to E. There are no internal structures visible. Monument is visible today as a roughly circular-shaped tree-lined earthwork on Digital Globe aerial photography. Possible ringfort reused as a tree-ring in the post-1700 period as part of the landscaping of the demesne of Hall House located 445m to SSE. Possibly not an antiquity but a designed landscape feature. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien. Date of upload: 28 November 2019

• WM036-028 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on a low ridge running N-S, in pasture, on the demesne lands of Hall House located 450m to E. Depicted on the revised 1910 ed. OS 25-inch map as a subcircular-shaped tree-planted enclosure. Monument described in 1977 as a raised roughly circular-shaped area (diam. 33m) enclosed by a bank and external fosse. The bank is slight and has been planted to form a hedge. A field fence runs into the bank and obscures the fosse from S-SW-WSW. The fosse has been widened or quarried from WNW-W-N. There is a gap at N which may be the original entrance. The interior has a gentle E-facing slope and has no obvious structures. Possible ringfort is visible today as a subcircular-shaped tree-planted earthwork on Digital Globe aerial photography. Possible ringfort reused as a tree-ring in the post-1700 period as part of the landscaping of the demesne of Hall House. Possibly not an antiquity but a designed landscape feature.
