"Southern Ireland" not existed as an entity since 1922. I assume that OP was in the north west: Roscommon, Mayo, Sligo, Donegal area.

I was in Ireland last month near the northern part of southernthe Republic of Ireland. 100% of all properties were either bordered by either a nice hedge or a wall of some form or another. Even the big fields had a thicket surrounding each one. Is there a land surveying type of law that establishes this or is the reason for this purely non-legal?

What's the reason for all of the hedges and walls that I saw when I was in Ireland?
