Full Description

A farm stead, illustrated on the 1st Edition Ordnance Survey, appears as low banks, exposed stone and raised areas within a quarry-like scoop to the west of a track aligned north/south. The foundations of the steading are 20m by 10m and 0.2m high in a U-shape, open to the east. Remains of a smaller structure lie to the immediate north. A forecourt is created to the east of the track by an arcing revetment. The area has the occasional tree and patches of scrub, there is also a moderate amount of dumped rubbish.
