What is recorded here

Field boundary in Bunowna is a field boundary in Bunowna, County Sligo, Ireland. It is a 40m long, 3.5m wide and 0.4m high earth and stone bank on a north-south ridge 12m south of a rath. From its southeast end, cut by a modern wall, it curves northwest along the ridge summit, then slopes downward to stop about 15m short of the east bank of the Easky River. Its shape links it to the nearby rath.
In pasture, on a N-S ridge, located 12m to S of a rath (SL011-022001-). Substantial bank (L 40m E-W; Wth 3.5m; H 0.4m) of earth and stone. From its SE end, where it is truncated by a modern field wall, it curves to NW along the level summit of the ridge and then continues down slope, stopping c. 15m short of the E bank of the Easky River. The form of bank suggests that it is associated with the nearby rath. Compiled by: Mark Keegan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
