NS 54 53 An archaeological survey was carried out as part of an ongoing project on a farm by farm basis. The majority of features described are previously unrecorded:
NS 5372 5276 Remains of ?farmstead defined on S by substantial banked scarp and containing: stone-built enclosure, 15 x 11m; small bothy, 5 x 6m; series of heavily eroded stone and earthen banks; cultivation remains; adjacent well or spring; associated stone and earthen dyke running N and S. (DES 1968; 1971, 38; 1975, 44).
A full report will be lodged with the NMRS and WoSAS.
J Brassington, R L Hunter and S L Hunter 2000.
These features are as described by Hunter and Hunter (2000), but they appear to be a hut and enclosure rather than a farmstead.
