Full Description
Features A-F
A: centred on NB 0698 0676
B: centred on NB 0704 0676
C: centred on NB 0708 0676
These three areas of feannagan cultivation (lazy beds) are situated along the north edge of the area, adjacent to the road, with the cultivation ridges running north to south down the slope. Feature A comprised six to seven ridges covering an area of 25m x 40m, Feature B 5-6 ridges covering an area of 20m x 15m and Feature C 4-5 ridges covering an area of 20m x 20m.
D:centred on NB 0700 0666
This spread of feannagan extends from the west extent of the area, to the cetnre of the low-lying grount, between the head dyke (smr 14212, Feature H) and the drain (smr 14213, Feature I) and covers an area of 60-70m east to west by 20m north to south. They are in a better state of preservation than Features A-C byt more degraded towards their east extent.
E: centred on NB 0704 0664
Partial remains of feannagan to the south east of the ditch (smr 14213, Feature I), situated across the whole of the boggy area. Very ephemeral
F: centred on NB 0704 0658
Well-preserved feannagan aligned north to south on the higher ground to the south of the boggy ground at the southern extent of the survey area, covering an area 40m x 20m within thefenceline (although they also exted eastwards outwith the area).
G: centred on NB 0698 0654
these well-preserved feannagan cover an area of around 100m x 20m with the cultivation ridges aligned south to north outside the southern boundary of the survey area.
