Field system in Carheenshowagh — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Carheenshowagh holds a forgotten room beside its ringfort. Grass smothers collapsed limestone walls across forty-five metres, yet a small rectangular base still resists forgetting. Perhaps people lived there, loved there, and disappeared into the story we now call history. The field remembers what tongues have forgotten.

Immediately NNE of a ringfort (GA057-074001-). A series of grassed-over collapsed limestone walls cover a rectangular area 45m N-S by 25m E-W. The remains of a rectangular structure (E-W; L 4m, Wth 2.2m) are also visible.
