Field boundary in Dooneens (muskerry West By., Inchigeelagh Par.)

Described by Quinn and Carroll (2010) as ‘This is located in pasture on a south-facing slope. It consists of drystone walling of random rubble and uncoursed. The wall is orientated N/S along the northern portion, turns in a westerly direction and again turns in a southerly direction where it curves towards the north to form a small field enclosure. It survives to a height of 3-4 courses and in many places contains large boulders. At the southern end it turns into a scarp wall as it is built against a natural bank/slope. Length (in total) 207m, Width 1.5m (max.) Height 0.8m.' Quinn, A and Carroll, M (2010) ‘Archaeological, Architectural and Cultural Heritage Assessment for a Proposed Wind Farm at Doonens Co.
