Field boundary in Toorboney

In rough hillside grazing, on the lower NNE-facing slopes of Stoukeen. A stretch of relict stone field boundary (H 0.3m; T c. 0.6m), which protrudes above the peaty surface, commences at a point c. 12m to the N of an enclosure (CO038-165----). It extends (L 8m) in a general NNW direction and then changes to a NNE direction for a distance of 12m. It then returns to a NNW direction for a further 12m and from there it meanders across the hillside for a further c. 45m. The wall is one to two stones in width.
