Activities

Field Visit (3 October 1990)

NG25NE 13 2608 5786.

To the NE of Waternish House and the public road are at least two buildings, one with an attached enclosure or garden plot, situated in a sea of lazy-beds, interspersed with a series of globular fields. Some bear traces of widely spaced shallow grooves of recent ploughing. The globular fields appear to postdate the majority, if not all, of the lazy-beds, which appear to be unenclosed, all of which predate the wider spaced plough furrows.

(WAT90 1158-1161)

Visited by RCAHMS (DCC) 3 October 1990.
