What is recorded here

The precise location of a medieval eel weir on the Camoge River n the townland of Dunkip has not been identified. The 1654-56 Civil Survey of Limerick recorded that; 'The River of Comoge passeth through the Premisses and hath one Eele weare out of repaire now upon it. Nicholas Bourke son to the syd. James being a P[ro]testant claymeth interest to the p[re]misses by virtue of a Conveyance made to him by his father' (Simington 1938, 138).

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
