The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, immediately W of townland boundary with Ballygrennan and 580m NE of Greenpark House. Enclosure (LI040-004----) lies in the W quadrant of the field system. Not depicted on OSi historic maps. Possible field system visible on aerial photograph (BGE 1/5000, 2540) dated 11/09/1982 on the Bórd Gáis Éireann Curraleigh West-Limerick gas pipeline. Linear cropmarks perpendicular to each other forming a grid-iron pattern are visible on OSi orthophoto taken between 2005-12. Clearly visible on Digital Globe orthoimages taken between 2011-13. Linear cropmarks appear as waterlogged channels on various Google Earth orthoimages. Linear features visible on aerial photographs may represent drainage channels belonging to reclamation works associated with the landscaping of the lands of Greenpark House.
See attached aerial photograph from Bórd Gáis Éireann gas pipeline (BGE 1/5000 2540).
