Full Description
NH53SW 17 c.509 312.
Centred at NH 509 312 are two oval stone-walled huts (A and B) with field system.
'A', set into an ESE-facing slope, measures c. 10.5m NW-SE by c. 9.0m transversely between the centres of a denuded wall spread to c. 2.0m in the S, and c. 1.0m elsewhere. The entrance in the SE is mutilated. A field wall runs NE from the NE side of the entrance, and a clearance heap lies against the wall in the W.
'B', set into a NE slope, measures c. 11.5m NW-SE by c. 10.0m transversely between the centres of a wall spread to c. 2.5m. The SE arc is destroyed by a recent wall. The entrance is not evident.
The field system is marked by stone clearance heaps, with occasional lynchets and field walls, but details of fields are obscured by birch scrub, and use of the area as a cattle park.
