What is recorded here
Ballynamought still holds an eighteen-metre stone line, perhaps marking a farm, a road or a boundary forgotten by people. It rises forty centimetres from the earth, wide enough for a child to climb, while turf claims both edges and a standing stone waits sixty metres southeast. The field may have changed hands or disappeared entirely, yet the stones remain arranged against time.
A length of relic field boundary running north-south for c.18m and made of random field stones. It has maximum H of 0.4m and width of 0.8m and is partially overgrown with turf. A standing stone (CO092-048----) is c.60m to the southeast.
