Field Visit (20 June 2002)
NM38SE 5 39473 81406
This rock shelter is formed by two short stretches of boulder wall that link either end of a displaced lump of rock back to its parent outcrop. The wall on the NE appears to continue downslope to the SE, while that on the SW end stops short of the outcrop to form a narrow entrance. Internally it measures 2.6m by 1.3m and up to 1.5m in height. An L-shaped stretch of field bank is visible upslope to the NW.
