On the Rathcroghan plateau and NE of Rathcroghan mound. Geophysical survey has recorded a double linear feature extending E from enclosure (RO022-057085-), mirroring the linear feature (RO022-057093-) associated with Rathcroghan mound itself, just to the S. The arms are 30m apart where they attach to the enclosure and 50m apart further E. They are at least 100m long, but it is not known if they extend as far as or beyond the perimeter of ceremonial enclosure (RO022-057012-). Each arm is represented by what appears to be parallel ditches placed c. 2m apart. The S arm is interrupted by an unambiguous opening c. 10m E of where it attaches to the enclosure (RO022-057085-). (Waddell et al. 2009, 154-6, 193)
