NC 3736 6200. A hut circle measuring 23 ft overall built against a limestone outcrop. A series of sub-oval enclosures is associated.
R W K Reid 1968; OS 6"map annotated by C S Sandeman, 14 March 1967.
This feature at NC 3738 6204, in a hollow at the N side of a rocky spur, is not a hut circle but a crudely-constructed subcircular enclosure of post-medieval period. It measures about 5.5m across an interior which is rubble-strewn and containing living rock. The wall, also incorporating living rock, is of single block width, about 0.6m wide and 0.4m maximum height. It lies within a larger sub-oval enclosure, 16.0m NW-SE by 13.0m, which is of similar construction, and probably contemporary. Surveyed at 1:10,000.
Visited by OS (N K B) 22 May 1980.
