Full Description

A small unroofed building shown on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map. Two buildings are depicted here on modern mapping and it is not clear which one is the older of the two. <1>

It is possible that this is the building referred to in MHG9122 which was apparently excavated by Dr Fraser Darling some time in the mid 20th century. Alternatively this may have been the larger building to the south. <2>
