NC55SE 28 5581 5285

See also NC55SE 17.

At NC 5581 5285, on a west-facing slope within the confines of a deserted township (NC55SE 17), is a hut platform, set into the slope and measuring 14.0m NW-SE by 12.0m. The back-scarp containing some stone is 0.9m high, but there is no evidence of walling around the front apron. The entrance was probably from the south-east.

There is no trace of associated cultivation.

Surveyed at 1:10 000.
