In pasture overlooking a stream to S, with the ruins of Killeedy Castle (LI044-099002-) in the centre. The ruins of Killeedy Church (LI044-101001-), graveyard (LI044-101002-) and St Ida's Well (LI044-101003-) lie 120m to SSE. Depicted on the 1897 ed. OSi 25-inch map as a raised sub-rectangular-shaped area (dims. c. 23m NW-SE; 17m NE-SW) defined by a fosse. Visited by the ASI in 1997 and described as ‘a raised sub-rectangular-shaped mound (dims. 20m NW-SE; 13m NE-SW) enclosed by a bank (Wth 2.5m, H 2m) from W-N-E with the fallen masonry in W. The interior is hollow in the centre where the ruins of Killeedy castle (LI047-099002-) are located. A gap (Wth 2.6m) in the bank at ENE may be the result of livestock erosion’. Overgrown outline of monument is visible on Digital Globe orthoimage taken between 2011-13 and on Google Earth orthoimages. Could be the remains of a collapsed earth and stone bawn enclosing Killeedy Castle. See attached Google Earth orthoimages. Compiled by: Martin Fitzpatrick Date of upload: 26 August 2021
