What is recorded here

On the summit of the NE edge of level upland ridge partly covered by peat. Group of at least thirteen clearance cairns (diam. 2-5m H 0.3-1m) occurring over an area c. 100m E-W by 100m N-S within a field system (WI042-049----) which is defined by low earthen banks covering the hill summit and NE slopes. There are two enclosures (WI042-029----, WI042-048----) to the NE and N respectively. The majority of the cairns occur within two parallel E-W field boundaries, some are located above these immediately S of the westernmost enclosure.
