Archaeology Notes

NC96SE 113 9640 6091

A sheepfold, situated about 28m to the SE of the E part of a township (NC96SE 87), was noted during a pre-afforestation survey. It measures 10m in diameter within ruinous drystone walls. There is a 1m wide entrance on the S. Level ground and possible boundary features suggest that a larger area, extending to the S, was originally enclosed.
