What is recorded here

Field system in Ballynaclogh is a field system in Ballynaclogh, County Tipperary, Ireland. An October 1969 aerial photograph shows long boundaries dividing four fields of varying width in an undulating field that slopes east. The 1840-1 and 1904 Ordnance Survey maps do not mark the system, suggesting it may pre-date 1840 and relate to the Ballynaclogh settlement. No visible trace of these boundaries remains on the ground, while housing has extended north along the road and a small cul-de-sac occupies the south end of the field system.

Situated in undulating field sloping to E. Field system not marked on 1st (1840-1) or 2nd (1904) eds OS 6-inch map. Site identified on aerial photograph (CUCAP 7 October 1969 AYO 31, AVN 53) as long field boundaries dividing four fields varying in width. No visible trace of these field boundaries. Housing has extended N along the road with a small cul-de-sac built into S end of the field system. Site possibly pre-dates 1840 as it is not depicted on the 1st ed. OS 6-inch map and could be related to the settlement at Ballynaclogh. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
