Moated site

What is recorded here

The moated site in Ballyhasty is in County Tipperary, Ireland. The 2008 inventory recorded a 30-metre by 27-metre square on a northeast-facing slope, enclosed by a rounded earth-and-stone bank 3.5 metres wide, 1 metre high inside and 1.5 metres high outside. It recorded slight traces of an external fosse from north to east and destruction elsewhere. The account placed the landscaped site in a bungalow's front garden with a road crossing its northwest side.
Situated on the NE-facing slope of a low rise in undulating countryside. A square-shaped area (30m N-S; 27m E-W) enclosed by an earth and stone bank (Wth 3.5m; int. H 1m; ext. H 1.5m) with typical rounded corners and slight traces of an external fosse visible from N to E but destroyed elsewhere. This site is located in the front garden of a bungalow and has been landscaped as a result. A road intersects the site at NW. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
