PeriodPost Medieval
Description
Remains of at least four buildings, including one particularly large multi-cell structure of unusual form, three rectangular dwellings and associated structures including a sunken store and animal pens. The multi-cell building was probably a longhouse, although it was possibly used as a barracks for men working at the limestone quarry to the south. The other three stone built structures demonstrate varying dimensions and appearance suggiesting that they may not have been contemporary and could have spanned several periods of occupation.
