Archaeology Notes

ND02SE 26 0980 2486.

At ND 0980 2486, on a gentle E-facing slope, is a large, heather-covered hut circle of a similar form to the example 160m to the S (ND02SE 8). It is 0.5m NW-SE by 9.5m within a wall, 0.8m average height and spread to 2.5m. Several inner facing-stones are exposed. The entrance, in the SE, has been mutilated; it is now 3.0m wide and numerous stones lie outside and within the hut. There is no trace of associated cultivation.

Surveyed at 1:10,000.

Visited by OS (N K B) 8 November 1982.
