NR83SE 28 8942 3032.

NR 8942 3032 A probable hut circle was found during field investigation situated on a gentle slope in an area now afforested. It has been ploughed through and planted on but is still identifiable. The earth and stone bank, spread to 3.0m and up to 0.5m high, encloses a level interior 9.0m in diameter. The entrance is not clear but a lowering of the bank in the south-east would seem to indicate its position.

Surveyed at 1:10 000.

To the south and east of the hut is a group of approximately 20 heather-covered stony mounds similar to other probable clearance heaps in this area (See NR83SE 11).

Visited by OS (TRG), 20 October 1977.
