Full Description

Centred NC 794 050.

The footings of a house, enclosures, a corn-drying kiln, numerous clearance heaps and a possible hut circle are on this SW-facing hillside, within a still evident head dyke and foot dyke. There are also signs of rig cultivation, but the site is infested with bracken and heather, making mapping of the features impossible at date of visit.
