What is recorded here
Derreenboy Upper holds a fifty-metre stone line descending from a rocky outcrop toward Barley Lake. The bog has swallowed part of the path, but the stones still mark the angle of an forgotten field. Someone drew a border there before the water rose, and the land kept the shape of that choice.
A c.50m length of relict field boundary extending from a rocky outcrop in a NW direction down towards the shore of Barley Lake. It is probably partially continues beneath the bog.
