What is recorded here
Along the southern boundary of Greenfield House Goodbody (1993, 30) has identified a possible section of Pale Ditch. This runs on a roughly E-W axis along a NE facing slope that falls away to a river c. 8m below surrounding ground level. It comprises a roughly continuous linear bank of earth and stone (H 1m, Wth at top 0.9m, Wth at base 1.4m) with a ditch on the southern or upper slope side (Wth 1.8m). This ditch is more apparent at the western end of the earthwork. Heavy vegetation obstructs the present views.
