Field Visit (August 1982)

Gass 3 NS 415 052 NS40NW

Situated about 550m SE of Gass there are the remains of a possible building (roughly crescentic on plan and divided into three compartments) measuring 17m by 8.2m over a stony bank 3.1 m thick. A circular mound (about 6m in diameter and 0.5m high) immediately to the NNW may be a hut; another possible hut lies 45m to the WSW.
