- WM032-070 Ringfort - cashel
Description
Described in 1977 as a ringfort situated on the N end of a rise on low hillock in good pasture land with extensive views to the SW, W and NW. Site consists of a small, roughly circular area (diam. 30m N-S; 29.5m E-W) defined by a dry-stone wall (H 1.75m) with no evidence of an external fosse. There is a small gap in the wall at NE. It is unclear if this is an original entrance feature, however the wall facing on the S side of this gap has been well built suggesting that this gap was used an entrance feature. The field boundaries that intersected the perimeter of the monument at NE, S and NW as shown on the OS 6-inch maps have all been removed. The enclosing drystone wall is quite substantial and is built using a mixture of large and small boulders. The wall acts as an external facing of the scarp from E-S-W while on the N it survives as a freestanding drystone wall. The date of this wall is uncertain and it could be post-medieval in date. The wall may incorporate sections of an original drystone cashel wall. Compiled by: Caimin O’Brien Date of upload: 11 March 2013
- WM032-090 Ringfort - rath
Description
Described in 1977, as a poorly preserved ringfort situated on a small hillock, with good views to the SW. The site has been largely destroyed and consists of a roughly oval-shaped area (diam. c. 36m N-S; 30m E-W) enclosed by a poorly preserved earth and stone bank only visible from the NE-E-SE where it is incorporated into a modern field fence that acts as the townland boundary. There are traces of a possible shallow outer fosse with an external earth and stone bank which are both difficult to identify due to livestock poaching and dense cover of vegetation at time of inspection. The inner bank is quite substantial where it survives with evidence of internal facing consisting of large boulders set on edge. The external face of the bank has a relatively modern drystone wall built against it. The interior is uneven and slopes slightly from W to E. No visible entrance feature.
