Field boundary in Cloghera More

This pre-bog wall extends for a short distance along the S bank of the Owenroe river, N of Mullaghanattin. It extends WSW for a distance of 20m from the edge of the river bank, where it turns S for a further 5m. It is 1m wide and is formed of a single line of boulders, which protrude .5m on average above the ground surface. Adjacent, in a peat-cutting at SW, is a similarly composed 21m long stretch of walling. It lies approximatly .8m below the surface of the peat. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 22.
