The National Monuments Service's description
This relict field wall was reported to the Archaeological Survey of Ireland by Tony Miller on 28th January 2013. He describes it as follows: "A section of ancient field walling which is in a collapsed state and partially buried by the turf and bog. An 18m linear section is visible running from the southwest, where it abuts a rock outcrop, to the northeast, where it runs down hill and out into the bog."
