Archaeology Notes

NC80NE 18 8545 0538.

(NC 8545 0538) Enclosure (NR)

OS 6" map, (1964)

An enclosure situated on top of the SW end of a ridge (OS EGC]) and surveyed at 1:10 560 is possibly a stone-walled hut.

It measures 17.0m N-S by 14.5 between centres of a turf-overgrown wall, and has a likely entrance in the SW arc.

Any traces of contemporary cultivation may have been destroyed by the later depopulated settlement downslope to the SE.

Visited by OS (E G C) 16 July 1961 and (J M) 18 August 1975.
