On the lower NW-facing peaty slopes of Miskish Mountain, overlooking Coulagh Bay to the NW. A series of collapsed, relict, stone field boundaries (T 0.55m; H 0.65m) occur in a roughly rectangular area (c. 160m NE-SW; c. 70m NW-SE). Both linear and curvilinear stretches of relict boundaries were identified. A combination of earth and stone was used in their construction. Occasionally the remains of the stone boundaries protrude above the surface of the shallow bog.
