The National Monuments Service's description
Listed in the SMR (1989) and RMP (1995) and classified 'Field System'. Not marked on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map. This field system is apparently linked to a deserted hamlet just to the north of a cashel (SL036-037001-). It is visible in an aerial photograph (GSIAP, G 235-4). The layout of the field system visible in the aerial photograph is identical to that depicted on the 1914 OS 6-inch map. This is probably post-1700 AD in date.
