Full Description
A group of three small structures has been identified at this location. <1>
A group of 4 drystone stores or cleits were noted in this position during a walkover survey in August 2000. The structures measure 1m in internal diameter and up to 0.8m high, and are sited in a line on a slight bracken-clad slope. Precise details were obscured by the bracken. <2>
Some photographs were submitted by a visitor to the HER website. They show that they are probably 5 structures, fitting the description above, and that drystone walling survives to several courses. <3>
