Field system in Greenmount — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Clear field marks still show on satellite images above Greenmount, where a scarped ridge and long bank divide the west-facing slope. They lie beside an enclosure and ringfort, suggesting people farmed this gentle land before modern pasture covered the edges. The marks survive because the soil and angle of the slope preserved them, even though no wall or hedge remains visible.

Situated on W facing slope of a gentle ridge in rolling pasture, an enclosure (LI013-068003----) lies c. 10m to the NW and ringfort (LI013-068002----) 40m to the NW. Recorded as linear features by Celie O'Rahilly in 1995. The site was inspected in 2004 and described as a possible field system consisting of a ridge that has been scarped (Wth 6m; H 1m) and a bank (L 30m; Wth 3.2m; H 0.2m) runs from the scarp down the slope to W.
