A newly located hut circle and numerous field clearance heaps.

Surveyed at 1:2500.

Visited by OS (N K B) 24 February 1966.

A hut circle on a moorland ridge accompanied by a field system. The hut measures 13.0 by 11.5m over a wall best distinguished in intermittent outer-facing slabs; the entrance is in the S, the line of the main axis. The field system comprises numerous stone clearance heaps, spaced from 5.0 to 20.0m apart, with traces of lynchets; a plot 25.0 by 10.0m was noted, and, WNW of the hut, a stretch of banking. 150.0m to the SE are several more stone clearance heaps.

Revised at 1/2500.
