In rough peaty ground, with occasional outcropping rock and surface boulders, on a W-facing slope at the foot of Hungry Hill. Turf-cutting has exposed the remains of relict stone field boundaries (T 0.7m; H 0.6m) which extend intermittently in a general N-S direction in a roughly rectangular area (c. 180m E-W; c. 70m N-S). The relict boundaries are located to the S of a stream that flows into Park Lake to the W. Two fulachtaí fia (CO116-028----, CO116-029----) are situated to the N of this stream. The relict field boundaries curve slightly to incorporate large boulders and it appears that the wall material may have originated mainly from field clearance.
