Field boundary in Rodeen

In rough peaty hill pasture, some of which is cutaway bog, on the undulating, lower, S-facing slopes of Maulin. Traces of a relict stone field boundary (T 0.4m; H 0.3m) defined by the tops of stones which protrude intermittently above the surface of the remaining bog and extend in a general NE-SW direction for a distance of c. 75m. Traces of shorter stretches of wall were noted to the W and SW of this relict field boundary. Limited field clearance has removed some of the stones.
