NC70SW 42.01 7480 0450 hut-circles; field-system; building: round-ended;
small cairns
NC70SW 42.02 7478 0482 cairn
NC70SW 42.03 7477 0441, 7486 0439 and 7501 0455 burnt mounds

A cairn, eight hut-circles, three burnt mounds, three enclosures, a round-ended building, and a field-system and small cairns are spread over a distance of about 600m from NNW to SSE by 200m transversely on a ridge of ground surrounded by bog to the SW of Achork (for two additional cairns, see NC70SW 41). Variable depths of heather, from recent burn off to rank cover, make site definition difficult. The site is divided topographically into two parts, each occupying a rise, separated from one another by a shallow saddle.
