Enclosure (NR) OS 6"map, (1962)

A heather covered hut circle discovered during field investigation. Visited by OS (WDJ) 5 5 1960.

This hut circle, obscured by peat and heather, measures 7.5m in diameter within a wall spread to 1.7m and up to 0.7m high externally. The vague entrance is in SE. There is no trace of associated cultivation; ruinous walling and straight banking in the vicinity are probably more recent.
