- WM002-027 Castle - motte and bailey
Description
Situated atop low rise of ground with church (WM002-028---) and graveyard (WM002-028001-) 135m to SE. Good views of the surrounding countryside in all directions. Anglo-Norman motte and bailey castle known as the castle of Magh-Breacruighe [Caislén Moighe Brecroige/Moybrekry] belonging to John de La Mare [Delamarr/Delamer]. In 1295 the castle was, ‘razed to the ground by Jeffrey O’Ferrall’ (AFM, 465). O’Donovan incorrectly suggested that the castle (LF023-076----) in the townland of Barry, Co. Longford may have been the castle of Magh Breacruighe. In 1297 the castle of ‘Moybrekry’ in Co. Westmeath was in the possession of John de La Mare (Cal. justic. rolls, Ire. Edw. I, 78). In 1455 ‘Caislen-na-Sraide’ [castle of the street] was demolished by O’Farrell; and the son of Mac Herbert was slain by him while taking the castle’ (AFM, 995). It is not clear if this is a reference to a stone castle located on the summit of the motte and bailey castle or to a second castle (WM002-029----) at a different location in the village of Street which has not been precisely identified. In 1464 the Annals recorded that the ‘Sraid of Moybrecray [was] burnt by Baron Delvna, both churches and houses, and many preying and burning committed betwixt them, to witt, the Nugents and Herberts’ (AFM, 1036). Present remains consist of a tree-covered high steep-sided mound or motte (H 7m; base diam. c. 42m) the base of which is enclosed by a fosse (Wth 5m-7.5m; ext. D 0.7-1.1m) with remains of a much degraded rectangular-shaped bailey (dims. C. 30m NE-SW; 21.5m NW-SE) visible as a low rise of ground defined by a scarp (H 0.5-1m) to SE. The top of the motte (diam. 14m) has a slightly concave shape. There is evidence of external stone facing visible along the steep sided faces of the motte which is visible in places where mortared stone can be seen protruding from the face of the motte. There is also evidence of mortared stone protruding from the perimeter of the summit of the motte which is suggestive of an enclosing wall or structure standing on top of the motte.

- WM002-028 Church
Description
No surface remains visible of the medieval church dedicated to St. Mary in graveyard (WM002-028001-) in the village of Street. Anglo-Norman Motte and bailey castle (WM002-027----) located 100m to NNW. In 1397 there is a reference to the perpetual vicarage of the parish church of ‘Sraid Maigibreacrai’ (Sraid Maighe Breacraighe / Street) which was vacant because the late John Ofergail [O’Farrell), while holding the said vicarage, obtained canonical possession of the parish church of Tirfoelan, and contrary to the canons, held both livings at the same time for many years’ (Costello 1909, 173). In 1452 this rectory belonged to the ‘abbatial mensa of the Cistercian monastery of St. Mary, Granard’, Co. Longford (Cal. papal letters, 621). In 1615 the church had a thatched roof when it was described as ‘Ecclesia tecta stramine’ (church roof thatch) (Gray 1940 31). Present 19th century C of I church may be located on site of or incorporate fabric of the medieval parish church. This church building was described by the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage as a, ‘Freestanding Church of Ireland church, (re)built in 1810 and altered c.1880, comprising three-bay hall with attached three-stage tower on square-plan to the west with a raised parapet with English-style crenellations. Probably containing earlier fabric. Single-bay vestibule flanks tower to the south. Pitched (west) and hipped (east) natural slate roof with clay ridge tiles, raised cut limestone verges to southwest and cast-iron rainwater’ (www.buildingsofireland.ie).

- WM002-028001 Graveyard
Description
19th century C of I church stands possibly on site of medieval church (WM002-028---) in centre of rectangular-shaped graveyard (dims. 51m ESE-WNW x 70m NNE-SSW) enclosed by a stone wall of post medieval date entered through gateway located at centre of W wall. Motte and bailey castle (WM002-027----) located 110m to NNW. Graveyard contains memorials dating from the 18th century to modern times. Graveyard extensions to S and E.
