71: blackhouses

Three blackhouses, one with a barn, one standing along and the partial remains of another, were recorded here. They were 5m from an active erosion area. There was also a short length of wall at NF 88991 80317. There was a further house, presumably from the same settlement at NF 89045 80312, which was partially buried.
