(NT 1819 4649) Settlement (NR)
OS 6" map (1967)
This settlement measures 150' by 75' within a wall which now appears as a turf-covered stony bank standing at best to a height of 1' and spread to a maximum thickness of 15'. A single outer facing-stone still remains in situ in the E sector. The entrance is in the S side.
The site slopes down from NW to SE but the gradient of the interior has been reduced by excavating the upper part to a maximum depth of 4', except for a small area which remains as a wedge-shaped spur. Four house-platforms can be seen, each measuring about 22' across. (Information from R W Feachem notebook 1961-2, 77)
