The remains of a grass-grown stone field boundary are evident on visualisations derived from Airborne Laser Scanning data about 120m NW of Tobar na Suil. Initially running from WSW to ENE, it climbs a steep slope for 28m before turning NNE to run along a break of slope for a further 80m and petering out. The boundary lines up with another 30m to the NE (NM71SE 98) that is shown on an estate map of 1847 (NRS, RHP571).
There is a small pen at NM 75224 11578 (ACFA 125) just 5m SE of this boundary.
