DescriptionComplex of earthwork features marking the site of a long-lived agricultural settlement on the north-facing slopes of the Great Orme. The principal features are a series of rectangular platforms and building footings which mark of the site of a settlement, probably of medieval date. This is associated with wider-spreading remains of trackways, lynchets and cultivation ridges on the slopes immediately to the north and north-west. To the north-east of the deserted settlement remains are traces of a hut circle settlement of uncertain age. Recorded during RCAHMW aerial reconnaissance.
