Field system in Drumcondra

Field system

What is recorded here

Not included in the SMR (1989) but listed in the RMP (1995) and classified 'Field System'. Not marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch map. Ruined linear limestone field walls (Wth 0.6m; H 0.3-0.5m) skirt the base of the knoll to W, N, E and SE, effectively delimiting the dry ground. Radiating to N and E are field ditches cutting through the surrounding marshy ground. This field system is likely to be post-1700 AD in date.
