Description
An enclosure, two rectangular structures and a circular building are located on the W side of the Cwm wall close to a dry gully formed in the steep SE facing slope (NPRN 84782). All features are overgrown with heather.
On plan the enclosure is subrectangular formed on the NW, NE and SE sides by an irregular rubble wall spread to 2m wide and generally rising to no more than 0.2m high, and on the SW side by the line of the gully. It measures 35m across the slope and between 30m and 45m transversely. A short length of coursed masonry 0.5m high revets the rising slope on the N boundary of the enclosure.
