Field boundary in Gowlane

In rough hill pasture, on a gentle S-facing boggy slope. The remains of relict stone field boundaries (T 0.3-0.65m; H 0.1-0.35m) protrude intermittently above the surface of the bog in a roughly rectangular area (c. 130m NE-SW x c. 40m NW-SE). The walls are generally curvilinear and feature short sections where upright slabs are set at right angles to the line of the wall.
