DescriptionTwo roughly circular platforms cut into a N facing slope. The larger of the two has a diameter of c.8.0m and shows traces of drystone walling, whilst the smaller, immediately to the W is 5.0m in diameter.
These platforms are assigned a medieval date although their circular form is unusual for that period. It is hard to escape the conclusion that these features represent a single settlement unit, with the smaller platform housing a subsidiary structure.
