Liam Price visited here on 29 September 1929

“There is a rath about 20 or 25yds in diameter just N of the top point of Goldenhill. Almost due E, just outside the entrance are six large boulders, suggesting a passageway by their appearances. There seems to be the remains of a chamber or cist in the centre of the rath – and the surface inside is not even, but consists of a large wide pit 5 or 6ft deep in the centre (containing the stones of the chamber) with six smaller pits of the same depth irregularly placed around – the surface now all grass- and bracken-grown.”

He returned on 11 October 1944 (and had second thoughts)

“Raheen at Goldenhill, Kilbride. I examined this again and noted more details. It has an outer fosse and an inner bank: I saw no trace of an outer bank. Depth of fosse below level of field, only about 1ft, width of fosse 9 paces or yards, height of inner bank over fosse about 7ft: fairly even all round.

Six blocks at entrance, the outer two are near the outside edge of the fosse – 9ft apart, one 3ft high by 3ft across (S side), the other 6ft high by 5ft across (N side). The other four are on the outer slope of the gap or entrance through the bank, 9 to 10ft apart, and each about 3ft high – the lower one on the S side has been cut through with wedges, and the broken-off piece is lying there.

…

Diameter of enclosed space of raheen, about 25 paces. It is very uneven, so that it is impossible to pace it across. Going in through the entrance, on the left is a round pit 5 or 6ft deep and 10ft or so across – and there are two somewhat smaller pits close inside the bank further to the SE and S. Between the first and second, and going in a crooked line across to the W or NW side is a long depression: and across this from the entrance, on the west side is another hollow, and it is in this one that the stones are which I thought in 1929 were the stones of a chamber. This pit is not in the centre, but W of the centre. The stone which looked to me like a capstone is about 3ft wide, mostly buried in the grass – and there are other stones under and near it. I now think that these might be stones forming part of a ruined hut (door?). The other pits might also be the ruins of huts. [In 1929] I spoke of six smaller pits, but three I have mentioned here are the best preserved, as round pits.

The inside of the raheen would I think be higher than the level of the field outside, even allowing for a buried accumulation of stones. All the stones and block are of granite.

Arch. Inventory of Co. Wicklow says:

Description: Situated on a very gentle SW-facing slope c. 200m SW of the summit of Golden Hill. Circular area (diam. 37m) defined by a stony bank (Wth c. 4m; int. H 0.7m) and an external fosse (av. Wth 6m; av. D 0.7m). There is a gap in the bank (Wth 5m) and causeway across the fosse (Wth 6m) at the NE with another causeway (Wth c. 12m) at the SE. There are some large stones in situ in the interior of the site and traces of a boulder revetment at the base of the bank. Possibly a modified prehistoric kerbed cairn. (Price 1934, 46)

Herity has this in his inventory of Irish passage graves, listed as Wi 1.

“At a height of 274m (900’) stands a ruined circular structure 36m in diameter and 4.5m high. There appear to be upright kerbstones around the edge and a pair of matched stones in the north-east quadrant. two other tumuli stand close by, one in Goldenhill Td. (Sheet 5) and the other in Kilbride Td. (Sheet1)”

Description from archaeology.ie:

Description: On a slight crest in a broad valley of gently undulating terrain. A circular area (diam. c. 10.4m) enclosed by eighteen stones with a large granite boulder at centre (H 0.8m; 1.1m x 0.8m). The mainly granite stones are quite evenly spaced (c. 50cm apart) and are of a broadly similar size (H c. 0.35m; 0.65m x 0.55m). The largest stone (H 0.4m; 0.95m x 0.8m) is at S. A bank has possibly been incorporated into the perimeter of the circle at SE.

A possible passage tomb according to Herity. He lists it as Kd 1 in the Inventory section of his book (the other 2, Kd 2 and Kd 3, are both in Broadleas Commons and are highly unlikely candidates for this classification, so this entry must be taken with a pinch of salt).

“This circular hilltop cairn, 18m across, standing at 352m (1154’) O.D. A depression on top may indicate that it is a passage grave.
The cairn is marked on the 1839 edition of the Six-Inch Map.”

Liam Price visited the circle in 1929 and was unimpressed:

“Whiteleas. The stone circle is S of Whiteleas House, about 600yds, and just N of the county boundary. It is a roughly raised circular piece of ground with a number of boulders in disorder about it, and two or more in the centre. A very rough monument. Lord W. Fitzgerald mentions it. The only noticeable thing about it is there are two white quartz boulders on N part, and one on E.”

Description from archaeology.ie:

In gently undulating, wet, rushy pasture. Walshe (1931, 127) describes it as, ‘a ruined stone circle, 26 yards [c. 23.8m] in diameter. Of the fifteen stones still extant, only 6 remain in their original position.’ In 1985, the stone circle was found to have been destroyed, with two large displaced pieces of rock on the site which may originally have formed part of the circle (SMR file). A second stone circle (KD029-023----) stands c. 830m to the NNE in Broadleas Commons townland.

Description: In 1954 during the clearing of stones from a rockery beside the obelisk on the grounds of St Augustine’s in Stillorgan a short cist was discovered. this contained an inhumation burial of a young adult female accompanied by a flint flake. The cist was rectangular in plan (L 0.92m, Wth 0.46m, H 0.47m) with its long axis aligned N-S (Cahill & Sikora 2011, 180-184).

From the National monuments Database:

Named ‘site of caher’ on the 1837 OS 6-inch map, this site has been referred to as ‘Dun Griffen’ (Shearman 1893, 451). The cashel, which had been erected at the eastern end of the headland, was removed during construction of the Baily lighthouse. Large quantities of bones were revealed. In 1890 when the Board of Irish Lights erected some cottages on the ‘Little Bailey’ several weapons of uncertain date were discovered in the digging of foundations. Not visible at ground level.

From the Arch. Inventory of Co. Louth:

This circular hilltop cairn, 21m in diameter and over 4m in height, contains the remains of a megalithic structure 3.5m long, in the SW quadrant. It is open to the SW and narrows from 1m wide to 0.5m at the rear. Three lintels are in position; the rear 0.7m of the structure is corbelled. The remains would seem to be those of a passage-tomb of uncertain design. Near the centre of the cairn are the remains of a drystone-walled circular structure, 3.3m in diameter, with an entrance passage opening to the SE, which may have been built by Lord Clermont. (CLAJ 1941, 77-9; Herity 1974, 232).

This is worth quoting in full.

Department of the Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht:

Recorded by Price in this notebook, dated 4th May 1959, as follows; ‘Patrick Healy told me that a bullaun stone had been found near Kilquade Church and had been brought to the church by Father Masterson, the parish priest. I went to see it today. It is at the E side of the church, placed on the stump of a large tree. It is a very curious stone, a block of granite about 3ft. 3 in. by 2 ft. 3in. [which] has three hollows or basins, much broken, on the one side and a large oval hollow on the opposite side. The large hollow has been placed mouth downwards on the stump, so it is not easy to measure: but it appeared to be (approximately) 23in. by 13in. and 9in. deep, with a hollow worn or ground smooth. On top there are three hollows, all broken on the outer edges: (a) three quarters complete: 12in. x 10in. and 11in. deep: it is the end of the longer axis that is broken away, so the 12in. is an estimate. (2) about half remaining: 8in. deep and it was probably about 10in. in diameter. (3) very much broken away: it was probably about 10in. in diameter: I could not measure the depth. [drawing] This is a rough drawing of the top of this tone with the large oval hollow indicated underneath. The edges of the stone have been broken away, it would seem with a sledgehammer; they are not worn away by weather. The hollows of the three basins are smoothly and evenly rounded.’ (Corlett and Weaver 2002, 644-5).

Entry on the National Monuments database, interesting because it lists the monuments on the Hill of Uisneach (I believe there are more):

Description: One of a cluster of monuments situated on the Hill of Uisneach. Nearby monuments include a barrow (WM024-173----) 200m to the N, an earthwork (WM024-068) is 390m to the SE, an ancient road (WM024-067) runs onto the S side of the monument, a ringfort (WM024-063) and holy well (WM024-60) are located 390m to the SSW, an earthwork (WM024-065) is 290m to the W, a second earthwork (WM024-062) is 270m to the WNW, a pond (WM024-064002-) is 170m to the NW. The monument was described in 1963 as a ‘large pair of conjoined ringforts, with hut-foundations (WM024-066002-) visible in the either part’ (SMR file 1963). This ringfort was excavated in 1925-8 by R. A. S. Macalister, who believed that the larger ringfort was the mythological ‘palace of Tuathal Techtmar’. On the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map the monument is depicted as a large circular ringfort with D-shaped annexe on the E side of the ringfort. On this map a ‘Cave’ or souterrain is annotated and depicted in the centre of the ringfort, the E quadrant of the ringfort interior has been divided into two small areas defined by earthen banks which run off the N & E side of a rectangular shaped platform located in the S quadrant of the ringfort. This rectangular platform appears to be the foundations of a hut site. A second possible hut site is depicted in the centre of the W annexe on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map.

The Rath of Borrismore.
I have lately put men to work at the Rath of Borrismore, within a mile of Johnstown, Co. Kilkenny, which was traditionally said to have caves or underground passages, the covering flag of the roof of one being barely visible. I have found and fully cleared out three splendid chambers: first chamber is 10 ft. 6 in. x 6 ft. wide, and 6 ft. 2in. high; second chamber is 11 ft. long, and varies in width from 5 ft. 1 in. to 5 ft. 10in. , height of roof 6 ft. 2 in. to 3 ft. The doors are about 2 ft. 6 in. high, and 16 in. wide. The one from first room to second room is of inclined jambs: the others mostly the one width above and below. The third chamber is 11 ft. 4 in. x 7 ft., and has a door on its north side, but there does not appear to be any chamber or passage to which it gave entrance. They must have intended to construct others at a future time. The chambers follow each other in a direct line, and the opening was in the centre of the rath. They are built of limestone and gritstone, but no indication of mortar of any kind being used. Within a hundred yards of the rath are two quarries, one of limestone, and the other of a whitish gritstone, such as is used in the building of these chambers. I will publish a full account and dimensions of them shortly. They were all firmly packed with sand and stones as if to effectively close them from being haunts of robbers. About eighty years ago, Kilkenny men when digging for gold, broke in the roof of the third chamber. Its floor is 14 feet below the surface, and I have made a rude staircase for visitors to ascend and descend who would not care to travel on hands and feet through the doorways. – W. Healy, P.P., Hon. Provincial Secretary for Leinster.

This is the description of the main mound from the National Monuments database:

Situated on the coast at the mouth of the river Delvin. This passage tomb is part of Bremore cemetery (Rynne 1960, 79, Mound I). It comprises a circular cairn which is heavily grassed over (max. diam.29m; H 3.5m). Possible kerbstones on W side. Disturbance at NW may indicate the remains of a collapsed passage and chamber (Herity 1974, 209, 255).

From the Arch. Inventory of Co. Meath:

Natural rock outcrop to which earthen mantle has been added creating flat-topped mound with a flat-bottomed fosse at its base SE-WSW and accommodated by road W-E (diam. of top 12m, diam. of base c. 24m, H c. 4m).

Entry in the National Monuments Database

Description: In a low-lying situation in grassland, on the former grounds of the Apostolic Nunciature. The site comprises a flat-topped mound, roughly circular in plan (diam. 19m; H 2.5m). There is an elongated, waterlogged hollow along the S section of the site that may have been a source for the mound material. Along the SE section of the mound is a rectangular block of granite (L 0.76m; Wth 0.56m; H 0.4m) with a socket on the upper surface that may have held a cross or sign.

Item no. 129 in the Archaeological Inventory of Co. Carlow – Hillfort. Univallate. Subcircular area on hilltop (max Dims c. 101m N–S; 112m E–W) enclosed by traces of rubble rampart with stone facing. Stone-faced entrance gap at WSW (W 3.1m)

Excavated in 1961 and found to be almost intact. “The cairn has a maximum height of 10 ft. and a diameter of 50 ft., but there was no kerb: instead, slabs of rock had been wedged into natural crevices around the periphery to prevent the slip of cairn material.” Two cists were found, one empty and the other “with the cremated remains of one adult and the sherds of a tripartite bowl-shaped food vessel. This seems to have been a secondary burial.”
Estyn Evans: Prehistoric and Early Christian Ireland. Batsford, 1966

Recorded by Liam Price on 18 March, 1932, “’The Druid’s Stone’ lies on the edge of the ‘street’. It is covered on one side with cup-markings, an inch deep, some rather less, of different sizes. The largest is 5 inches across.”
Price’s sketch shows a stone 29 inches wide by about 2 feet tall with 20 cup-marks. I visited Threewells today, 14/9/07 and couldn’t locate the stone. The area where I believe it once stood is totally overgrown.

According to the Ordnance Survey this mountain is named after the visit of Prince William in 1821 with his father, the reprobate George IV.

Arch. Inventory of Co. Meath says: Possible stone circle (site) Destroyed by quarrying in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the surviving records indicate a circle of large stones set on end some 21 feet in diam. (Studia Hibernica 7, 142-5)

Arch. Inventory of Co. Meath puts this in Rathbranchurch, the neighbouring townland, and lists 18 barrows in all.

Very few details given in the Arch. Inventory of Co. Meath: “Drystone built, L-shaped passage (L. 11m) terminating in beehive chamber with air vent.”

Excavated June/July 1934, cairn completely removed and “re-erected as nearly as possible in its former shape.” There were 10 graves/cists found, containing the remains of 16 people. Remains of 2 other people were found in the cairn itself, not in the graves/cists.
The excavators found it impossible to accurately date the cairn “except to say that it belongs to the Bronze Age.”
This is worth quoting extensively: “The most remarkable feature of the cairn is the fact that the ten graves contained the remains of no less than sixteen people, exclusive of course of the small traces of two others not actually in the graves. Especially noteworthy is the obvious planning of the entire mound around a central pair of graves which appear to have contained three generations of a family whose bones were probably brought from elsewhere to form the nucleus of the whole mound. It may not be too imaginative to see in this special regard for the remains of the dead, and in the accumulation of burials around the central ones some survival of the megalithic tradition which was so strongly rooted in County Clare.”

Liam Price mentions 3 bullauns in his notebooks:

29th October 1933
“The top of the hill (1171ft) is called ‘the Whistling Bank’. Further W than the pond near Johnny McDonnell’s house (which was previously Farrel’s) are three ‘bullaun’ stones, all granite blocks, natural boulders. The first has three bowls: two of them 13in. each in diameter, and 7 and a half in. and 8 and a half in. deep respectively: close together, rather vertical sides: the third is very shallow – 10in. diameter, 1in. deep: like a place where a bowl was started.”

There is a well-looked-after old slate quarry south-east of here at Inchanaglogh (S416308). The cliffs over the Lingaun river, with vegetation clinging precariously, are amazing. There are various modern ‘megalithic’ sculptures around the site. Well worth a visit if you have the time before or after the passage grave.
