What is recorded here
Located on the S-facing slope of a low E-W ridge. The house (ME053-011----) and possible bawn (ME043-011001-) were at the N edge of a field system that covered about 30 acres (c. 7.5 ha). The fields were rectangular (dims c. 60-100m x c. 40m) defined by earthen banks and silted drains, with some hollow ways (Wth c. 4-5m; D 0.5m) between the field banks. All the earthwork remains were removed c. 2013 (Bing).
