On flat wet pasture N of the N24. The field system is located around the enclosure (LI024-089----). The field system is partially depicted on the OSi 1840 ed. 6-inch map and on the 1897 ed. 25-inch map. It is visible on the OSi orthoimages taken 2005-12 and on the Digital Globe orthoimages taken 2011-2013. Identified as a relic field system by the Bruff aerial photographic survey (Bruff 15.1 and 15.2; AP 4/3621). The field system consists of 2 parallel field boundaries orientated NE-SW with lateral connecting field boundaries (ext. dims. 400m N-S; 130m E-W). It is visible on Digital Google Earth orthoimage taken 18/11/2018. The field system (LI024-222----) may form the SW part of this field system (LI024-223----).
