What is recorded here
Located on the summit of Creagh Hill, which is a designed landscape. A small copse (diam. c. 60m ) is depicted on the 1839 and later eds of the OS 6-inch map. This is separated by a berm (Wth c. 15m) from a surrounding field bank that connects to a NNE-SSW passage spanning the hill. This in turn connets to a path between field banks (Wth c. 20-30m) call ed 'The Sweep Walk' arund the base of the hill. At the summit of the hill a chord (C 80m) of the outer bank survives as a field bank (Wth c. 1m; H c. 1.5m) and hedge WSW-NNE.
