Recorded monuments
- WX010-020 Ringfort - rath
Description
Located on a slight S-facing slope. In describing the boundaries of Clonee townland in the course of a land dispute in 1561 before four O’Doran brehons of the Ballyorley school (WX021-022004-) including Domhnall O’Doran and Gillaphadraig O’Deoráin, a raheen known as Ráithín Thomseáin (Thomas’ Rath) is listed (Binchy 1978, 1016, translated by Brian Ó Cléirig), which is probably this rath. The rath is marked as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 50m) on the 1839 and 1925 editions of the OS 6-inch map, being bisected by a NE-SW field bank on the later map. It was removed c. 1970 but is described locally as an enclosure with a circular bank. It is not visible at ground level in pasture. Archaeological testing (91E0030) in January 1991 in the NW part produced evidence of a fosse (Wth 2.6m; D 0.6m) that was filled largely with modern debris (Bennett 1992). Further archaeological testing (19E0610) outside the area of the monument immediately to the E and S failed to produce any related material (McLoughlin 2019; excavations.ie 2019:285). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
