Three good sites in this square - Slea Head, Dunmore Head and <strong>the</strong> eastern slopes of Mount Eagle. Slea Head is <strong>the</strong> best<br />
of <strong>the</strong>m with some of <strong>the</strong> steep fields below <strong>the</strong> road down to <strong>the</strong> cliffs also possible . Some of <strong>the</strong> upper fields in <strong>the</strong> maze of<br />
stone walled fields above <strong>the</strong> village of Coumeenoole could also be possible as were clearly not as green as <strong>the</strong> lower<br />
fields.<br />

This headland has steep slopes falling into <strong>the</strong> sea and it is <strong>the</strong> steep slopes that are of interest along with <strong>the</strong> old<br />
earth bank field boundaries and a small set of old now unenclosed fields facing <strong>the</strong> mainland. There were traces of<br />
lazy beds in <strong>the</strong>se fields. Again <strong>the</strong> feeling was that this area should have been better and would be worth revisiting.<br />
