Description
Complex remains of multiperiod upland field system, comprising surviving areas of cultivation ridges/ridge and furrow between outcropping areas of natural rock, terraces and lynchets formed by centuries of ploughing, discrete clearance cairns which are likely to have prehistoric origins, denuded field banks and boundaries, and the latest phases comprising stone banks and walls and abandoned barns and sheepfolds.

Documented during Royal Commission aerial reconnaissance.
