## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- WX015-076: Fulacht fia, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CWX015-076----. Identified in centre-line testing (E4110) in advance of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy road scheme and set aside for resolution as Effernoge 2 (Hardy et al. 2010, 65). It is situated in the valley of a NE-SW stream, with a SE-NW section of the stream immediately to the S. It was excavated (E4234) by M. McNamara who uncovered a layer of burnt stone material (dims 8.8m x 5.4m; T 0.4m) that that extends outside the excavated area to the NW and NE. It overlay a rectangular, flat-bottom pit or trough (dims c. 2m N-S; 1.3m E-W; D 0.7m) filled with an alluvial deposit. A pit (0.9m x 0.6m; D 0.45m) 0.3m to the NE was filled with burnt stone material, and a possible fire-spot (dims 0.9m x 0.6m plus), represented by fire-reddened clay was just N of the trough. A curving section of a palaeochannel (Wth 1.9m plus; exposed L 5.4m) was explored at the S edge of the site. A sample from the pit produced a C14 date of Cal. BC 1007-846. The burnt mound (WX011-077----) is c. 270m directly to the ENE, although the stream loops to the S between the sites.

- WX015-077: Burnt mound, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CWX015-077----. Identified in centre-line testing (E4110) in advance of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy road scheme and set aside for resolution as Effernoge 1 (Hardy et al. 2010, 58). It is situated in the valley of a NE-SW stream, with a N-S section of the stream immediately to the E. It was completely excavated (E4233) by M. McNamara who uncovered a layer of burnt stone material (dims 9.4m NE-SW; 8.53m NW-SE; T 0.16m), with a large area of oxidized subsoil (dims 2.1m x 2m) beneath, which is interpreted as a fire-spot involved in heating the stones. However, no trough was recorded in the excavated area. There was a section of a palaeochannel (Wth 5.5m; exposed L 16.3m) that curved around the W edge of the mound. The fulacht fia (WX011-076----) is c. 270m directly to the WSW, although the stream loops to the S between the sites.

- WX015-084: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CWX015-084----. Situated on a slight rise in a low-lying area. The cropmark of a rectangular enclosure (int. dims c. 50m E-W; c. 30m N-S) is defined by wide fosses or moats (Wth c. 4-6m) is visible on Google Earth (28/06/2018; 14/07/2018), although much of the perimeter is absent at SE and at the W end of the N side. There is a large quarry (diam. c. 15m) at the centre with a drainage channel off to the ESE. The rectangular enclosure is within an oval enclosure (int. dims c. 90m E-W; c. 65m N-S) defined by a fosse or moat (Wth c. 3m at E to c. 8m at SW) which is only visible on the same images E-ESE and S-W, the perimeter being cut by field banks at other points, except the SE where there could be a rectangular enclosure attached. It was first reported by Simon Dowling. See the attached enhanced view from Google Earth Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload; 3 March 2020

Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12).

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
