What is recorded here

On flat level ground. Identified as a cropmark of a fosse c. 55m N and c. 50m E of a tower house (KK020-060001-) on an aerial photograph (CUCAP AYK080, 9 July 1969). The cropmark appears to form the N and E side (L c. 70m) of a bawn associated with the tower house. A road runs NE-SW along the W side of the tower house and a field boundary runs NW-SE S of the tower house running southeastward. There is no indication of the cropmark in the field W of the road and S of the field boundary, probably due to different crops in these fields.
