Full Description

A walkover survey in 2008 noted the remnants of a sub-rectangular enclosed field to the west of a rocky knoll. The area measures 25m N-W by 16m and is gently sloping. It is enclosed by short fragments of stone wall which incorporate rocky outcrops. It may have been associated with the house and enclosure to the north-west (sites 16 and 17). The south wall measures 0.90m in width and 0.50m in height. The site may be affected by the construction of the proposed power house and it is recommended that the access road be rerouted to avoid it. <1>
