Settlement cluster in Arm

Settlement cluster

What is recorded here

On a gentle SW-facing slope. There is no evidence of a settlement, implied in the name Oldtown, associated with the Roman Catholic chapel of Oldtown (RO026-037001-). Archaeological testing (07E0153) in the vicinity produced no related material other than traces of an earthen bank that may have surrounded the church but there were no burials (Casey 2007).

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record RO026-037003

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