NX66NW 4.3 6163 6523.
At least two phases of construction can be identified in this complex of structures. On the E is a collapsed dry-stone enclosure, open to the N, with a small circular enclosure at its NW end, and a square stone-built stance at its S end. This appears to overlie a grass-grown bank in the SW and possibly to truncate a grass-grown rectangular footing on the N side of the complex.
