• WM029-030 Inauguration site
  Description

  The precise location of the inauguration place of the Mac Amhalghaidh / Magawley clan has not been identified and several locations have been suggested (Fitzpatrick 2004, 170-1). In 1837 O’Donovan suggested that the hill beside Tullymagawley House may have been the hill on which Magawley was ‘made’. The Ordnance Survey Letters of 1837 records that the ‘hill of Tullymagawley preserves as a ‘monumentum aere perennius’ the name of the ancient Lord of the soil (Walsh 1957, 7). Dalton (1926, 52) recorded that the ‘inauguration chair of the Magawley chiefs stood on the hillock now called Tullymagawley’. This ‘hill of Tullymagawley’ may be the place described by Cox (1970, 62) in 1970 as a ‘grave-like mound’. A natural looking hillock in the field to the N of Tullymagawly House (WM029-031----) may mark the site of the 'Hill of Tully Mac Awley'. It is possible that this roughly circular shaped mound or hillock is entirely natural with no archaeological features visible (SMR File 23/08/1983). Fitzpatrick suggested that this hill was an unlikely location for inauguration ceremonies and that the 'Hill of Tully Mac Awley' identified by O'Donovan was possibly located in the neighbouring townland of Ballymurry (Fitzpatrick 2004, 170). A hilltop enclosure (WM030-065----) 1.1km to the E of Tullymagawly House standing in the townland of Ballymurry is locally believed to be the inauguration place of the Mac Amhalghaidh clan (ibid.). Fitzpatrick (2004, 171) however suggests that the bowl barrow (WM030-104----) on Knockdomny Hill is the more likely location for the inauguration place of the Mac Amhalghaidh clan.

• WM029-031 Bawn
  Description

  According to Cox (1972, 155) 'in Tully townland is the last seat of the Magawlys of Calry. Their old house a modest one still stands and nearby is a high wall of old masonry containing a few splayed windows measuring 4" by 15". The wall would appear to have once surrounded an older building or 'castle' '. Cox appears to be describing the possible remains of a bawn wall which enclosed an old building possibly a castle that was replaced in the 18th century by the present house marked Tullymagawly on the OS 6-inch maps.

• WM030-064 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on a low rise, in pasture, overlooked by a wide, gradual rise to SE, Tullymagawly 145m to NE. An inauguration site (WM029-030----) of the Magawly family and a bawn (WM029-031----) lie c. 140m and 150m to NW and WNW, respectively. Not depicted on OS mapping. Monument described in 1980 as an oval-shaped area (dims. 34m NE-SW; 24.5m NW-SE) defined by a scarp (H 2m) which is best preserved from ENE-E-SSE and is lower (H 1m) from SSE-S-SW-W-NE. There is a slight ledge at the base of the scarp from SSE-S-SW. The top is platform-like and has a very slight NE-facing slope with faint traces of old cultivation ridges running NE-SW. A field fence skirts the base of the scarp at NE. This earthwork may be related to the inauguration site of the Magawly clan and could have been used as an inauguration mound. Monument is visible today as an oval-shaped earthwork on Digital Globe aerial photography. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien. Date of upload: 08 November 2019
