The National Monuments Service's description
An extensive field system comprising a series of irregular mound walls stretches across a plateau in Fahee North and into Cappagh (c. 1.7km NE-SW) and is visible on Digital Globe and OSi orthophotos (MapGenie 2013-2018). Two cairns (CL006-161---- and CL010-183----) lie within the field system and a number of enclosures (CL010-191001-, CL010-191002-, CL010-209---- and CL010-299----) lie at the SW extent.
