Full Description

Adjacent to a drystone dyke is a drystone structure 5m by 4m, open to the N. This is described as 'Target Butt' on the OS map of 1901 and was presumably used for target practice by deer
stalkers. The dyke at this point is largely robbed out/washed away. A vehicle track crosses the dyke just above this feature.
Wordsworth 1997, Site 22 (see Hlinked report)
