Identified as linear cropmarks on aerial photographs (BGE 1/5000, Strip map 4, site 4/37) taken 03/11/1984 on Bórd Gáis Éireann Curraleigh West-Limerick gas pipeline. Monument visible as 2 linear cropmarks parallel to each other and running N-S in a field containing cultivation ridges running E-W, on Digital Globe orthoimage taken 2011-13. Also visible on Google Earth orthoimage dated 14/09/2019. Linear earthworks may represent teh remains of post-1700 drainage channels associated with land reclamation rather than the remains of a medieval field system.
