Description
A longhut and associated enclosure are located below, and to the east of, the limestone escarpment of Clo Cadno. The building measures 5.2m long (east by west) by 3.6m wide within low stony banks about 1m wide. But at its west end is a larger spread of rubble suggesting perhaps a chimney. There is a faint suggestion of subdivision into two compartments. The interior is strewn with rubble. The enclosure or paddock, on the immediate north, measures about 12m across and is defined by rubble banks 1m-2m wide and 0.3m high. It is of rhomboid shape with rounded corners. The are lime workings and other enclosures in the vicinity.
