High white thorn trees grow around the former while the latter is surrounded by an earth fence with furze growing on it Another liss stands in the lands of Mr Michael O Regan Oldcastletown from which Dwane's liss can be seen. There are two in lands of Mr Thomas Drake Oldcastletown which are also within view of each other.(continues on next page)
