Archaeology Notes

NC85SE 17 8991 5104.

At NC 8991 5104, on a W-facing hillslope, is a simple hut circle measuring 7.5m N-S by 6.5m within a low peat and heather-covered wall, spread to 1.8m, with the W arc very obscure. The entrance is in the south. A few small clearance heaps in the vicinity are the only evidence of contemporary cultivation.

Surveyed at 1/10,000.

Visited by OS (J B) 21 June 1977.
