What is recorded here
Fahee North holds a long ribbon of irregular mound walls stretching nearly two kilometres toward Cappagh, marking fields so old they have become part of the plateau itself. Two cairns stand inside the boundaries while four enclosures cluster at the southern edge, suggesting a settled life that shaped the land before written memory. The walls still break the light on aerial photos, proving that human hands once measured and owned this wide, quiet place.
An extensive field system comprising a series of irregular mound walls stretches across a plateau in Fahee North and into Cappagh (c. 1.7km NE-SW) and is visible on Digital Globe and OSi orthophotos (MapGenie 2013-2018). Two cairns (CL006-161---- and CL010-183----) lie within the field system and a number of enclosures (CL010-191001-, CL010-191002-, CL010-209---- and CL010-299----) lie at the SW extent.
