What is recorded here

Situated in undulating countryside in an upland area with the River Suir to the E. The site consists of the foundations of a square bawn and moat with a destroyed castle site (TN029-075001/002) and associated field system which appears to be contemporary with the castle site. The area is divided up into small square fields delimited by a low grass-covered earth and stone banks with a possible roadway extending N-S from the castle site towards the small fields. No evidence of any house platforms. 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
