OS 1:10,000 map, (1970)
Three hut circles (A, B and X) and an associated field system.
RCAHMS 1911, visited 1909; Visited by OS (N K B) 22 February 1966.
On a gentle south-west slope in open moorland are two hut circles (A and B) and an accompanying field system. The published hut at NC 7306 0529 (X) is a fortuitous setting of lynchets and linear stone clearance.
'A' measures 11.5m N-S by 10.5m across, within a reduced and peat-obscured wall; entrance is no longer evident.
'B' measures 7.5m diameter inside a heather-covered wall spread to 2.5m and 0.3m high; the entrance is in the S.
The field system is denoted by numerous stone clearance heaps, spaced on average 5.0 to 15.0m apart, interspersed with occasional traces of lynchets and banks. No measurable plots are discernible.
Revised at 1:10,000.
Visited by OS (J M) 30 April 1981.
