What is recorded here
Marked on the 3rd edition of the OS 6-inch maps an arc of stone wall incorporating near its E end a large erratic boulder. The chord of the arc would measure 30m. The wall consists of a double line of closely set stones, flush against one another. The wall is from .7m to 1.1m in width. The site is located ENE of Sheskin More Lough, in an area of rough grazing with some blanket bog and rock outcrop.
