Description
A field system is marked by lines of rubble and boulders at ground level forming enclosures and it continues south of a later field wall (NPRN 532757). Amongst these are the remains of hut circles, recorded in the 1950s but hard to identify in 2013. At the NGR given is a possible small hut on a levelled site and measuring approximately 4m in diameter. To the south-west, at SH5671145379, is an arc of stones 4.5m in diameter, possibly a hut circle. To the south-east, at SH5672745371, is a possible platform 4m square on levelled ground with small stones on the the uphill side and tussocky grass.
Recorded as part of RCAHMW Uplands Archaeology Initiative project.
