Full Description
NC86SW 15 8352 6207.
At NC 8352 6207 on a west facing hillside is a poorly preserved hut circle overgrown with peat in association with a minor field system. The hut, set on a rise, is 8.5m by 7.0m inside a wall reduced to a low 2.0m broad spread; the entrance is in the SW and on the line of the longer axis.
The field system on the neighbouring slopes north of the hut, is denoted in half a dozen or so substantially bare-stone heaps of field clearance, spaced 10.0 to 15.0m apart, and in some linear banks of the same;
measureable cultivation plots are not discernible.
Surveyed at 1/10,000.
