| The
aim of this study was to evaluate the current condition of a sample
of stone monuments in selected bedrock regions in Ireland. The research
examined 96 monuments including megalithic tombs, rock art, stone
rows and stone circles, stone forts, ecclesiastical sites (such
as churches, round towers, ogham stones and stone crosses), medieval
castles and fortified houses, and post-medieval built heritage including
martello towers, signal towers, bridges, and lime kilns. The study
examined the archaeological significance of each monument, the stone
types found, decay forms and processes and the extent of biological
growth to assess the nature and severity of risk.
