Orval NM 329 986 NM39NW
What may be the remains of a deer-trap are situated at the foot of a scree-slope, 550m SW of the summit of Orval. It comprises a roughly oval enclosure (7.8m by 6m within a drystone wall up to 2.6m thick and 2m high) from which a more slightly built oblong enclosure (6.8m by 5.3m internally) runs upslope. A funnel-shaped area leading into the enclosures has been cleared from the screes above.
