In pasture, on a S-facing hillslope to the N of Carran Mountain. Relict field walls (T c. 0.5m; H c. 0.4m), some of which have been exposed in cutaway bog, cover an area measuring c. 350m NE-SW x c. 150m NW-SE. The walls form a roughly semicircular area defined by a linear NE-SW wall (L c. 350m) which is abutted at both ends by a curvilinear wall, projecting to the SE.
