On waste ground is a stony mound cleared out in the centre, and nearby, traces of a few others. They appear to be the usual field clearance heaps.

There are several scattered stony mounds in this area of heather and gorse surrounded by cultivated ground. Some are of the type found in association with hut circles, others are modern. No pattern of cultivation plots is apparent.
