Field system in Monaster South — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Monaster South holds a buried field system beside the 12th century Cistercian abbey of Monasteranenagh, where linear earthworks still emerge through rough pasture near the Camoge River. The abbey likely shaped that land for working life, while later forgetting smoothed its edges beneath grass and traffic. A modern laneway cuts across the old alignment, reminding us that human arrangement comes in layers rather than one clean moment.

In rough pasture, 100m SE of the 12th century Cistercian abbey of Monasteranenagh (LI031-050004-) and 132m S of the Camoge River. Abbey Ville House and walled garden 130m to SW. Not depicted on OSi maps. Traces of earthworks are visible to the N of Monasteranenagh Abbey on oblique aerial photograph taken 17/07/1968 (CUCAP AVQ087). A modern laneway runs E-W to the north of the linear features. Traces of relic field system associated with abbey visible as linear earthworks with trace of relic field boundary running NW-SE on OSi orthophoto taken between 2005-2012 and on Google Earth orthoimage taken 14/02/2020.
