A boundary bank, extending intermittently for 800m from Loch Poll northwards up to the Oldany River, was recorded during a pre-afforestation survey of Drumbeg Common Grazings. Where best preserved, it survives as a stone bank spread up to 2.5m in width and standing up to 1.5m in height. Elsewhere it takes in crags as part of its course. A further stretch of bank lies to the N of a minor watercourse towards the N end of the boundary and a second bank leads from the boundary, S, to the enclosure (NC09SE 18).
