NH84SE 2 centred 871 406.

At NH 8707 4068 is a denuded circular stone-walled hut measuring c. 10.5m in diameter between the centres of a wall spread to c. 2.5m. The entrance is not evident. A clearance heap lies against the wall in the W arc. To the E of the hut, mainly on a S-facing slope, is an area of stone clearance heaps and occasional lynchets, forming a contemporary field system. Details of the fields are greatly obscured by peat but two can be seen to measure c. 30.0m by c. 20.0m and c. 20.0m by 15.0m. Surveyed at 1/10,000.
