Description
A polygonal shaped sheepfold possibly built on top of a cairn. The sheepfold measures 6 m by 5 m internally with walls 0.8 m wide and 0.7 m high. A single entrance occurs on the south side. The possible building of this fold on top of an earlier cairn is suggested by a spread of small boulders to the south of the feature and two very large flat slabs incorporated into the northern wall of the feature which may have originated from a cist K.
