Recorded monuments

• MA098-024 Enclosure
  Description

  Located within an expanse of blanket bog, close to the SE margins of the bog. Not indicated on the 1838 and 1920 OS 6-inch maps. This rectangular enclosure (c. 37m NE–SW; c. 15m NW–SE) is one of two enclosures visible in an aerial photograph (OS 6 9551 -2; Roll 211, pr. 18) which were listed under a single number in the RMP (1997). The enclosures have been allocated individual numbers; the other enclosure (MA098-024001-) is located c. 65m to NNE. A field inspection in 1997 determined that the enclosures, in which cultivation ridges are evident, are field plots/gardens of relatively recent date.
