NX55NW 26 centred on 529 575
Centred NX 5285 5758. Dispersed over approx 3.5 hectares on the south east slopes of Cambret Hill and lying between 700ft and 850ft OD are about twelve small field clearance heaps. They average 3.0m diameter and 0.7m in height, are irregular in distribution, and are composed of small angular stones with no trace of kerbing.
Some fragmentary lynchets (0.3m high) are identifiable but no definite field pattern could be interpreted partly because the area is under a dense cover of heather and bracken.
