Earthwork in Ballinamona (horeabbey Par.)

In improved pasture, on a N-facing slope. Adjoining SE-corner, within ecclesiastical enclosure (TS060-064001-). Small enclosed L-shaped area (dims. 18m N-S; 16m E-W; short return to E: 12m E-W; 11m N-S) defined by low bank (overall Wth 3.35m; Wth at top 1.5m; int. H 0.2m; H 0.15m) to W and N. Linear earthwork (long-axis E-W) defined as a bank (L 26m; H 0.15m at N and S) extends from bank of ecclesiastical enclosure (TS060-064001-) at WNW. Second similar earthwork (long-axis E-W) defined as a bank (L 14m; int. H 0.2m; H 0.15m) extends from SSW of same and is reduced to scarp (L 22m) at W extent. Corresponding linear features are depicted on the 1840 OS 6-inch map and may represent field boundaries. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
