NG 5235 1917 A stone built rectangular structure lying on a north-east to south-west alignment which measures 6.0m long by 5.0m wide over walls which have slumped to 1.0m wide. An entrance lies at the south-west corner where an upright stone marks one side of the opening. There is a 2.0m diameter pile of stones in the south-east corner of the structure.

NG 5239 1911 A badly disturbed circular stone cell which measures 2.8m in diameter. This cell sits inside the remains of a circle of largish boulders some 9.0m in diameter. This circle may be the robbed remains of a pre-historic hut circle.
