The National Monuments Service's description
A substantial length of relict field boundary which also forms the townland boundary between Coomclogh and Ballynamought to the west. It is over 200m in length and runs from a point on the summit of the ridge in a NW-SE direction. It is visible for much of this length, sometimes covered by turf and at its southern end it disappears into an area of deeper bog. It survives to a height of 0.6m in places and one section near the newly recorded hut site appears to have facing stones on the western side. This section also appears to have been rebuilt and maintained at different times.
