Archaeology Notes

NH52SE 11 5727 2498

In an area of heather moorland soon to be afforested is a hut circle, some 11m in diameter between the tops of the collapsed stone walls. The wall spread is about 2m wide and 1m high. There is no obvious entrance. Situated at the centre of the hut circle is a stone grouse butt, one of a line of butts that cross the moor from ESE-WNW. The hut circle is situated within an area of clearance heaps and stone field dykes.

G Gill and G Harden 1987.
