This group of at least five drystone sheepfolds is situated on the beachhead at Grory. They appear to have developed piecemeal, but are probably contemporary with the most recent elements of the field system extending to the W. Some are provided with low ‘creeps’ allowing the sheep to move from one to another. They are shown on the 1st edition of the OS 25 inch map (Orkney Sheet LXXXIX.7, 1882).
