Description
A small walled yard that measures approximately 6m square. The retaining walls are cut into the hillside and measure up to 0.9m wide by 0.75m high. There are foundations of a possible collapsed building on the north end that survive as a pile of stone debris. The debris measures 4m long by 2m wide and is up to 1.2m high. The yard and possible building are part of an extensive manganese mine complex (NPRN 514501). It is shown on both the 1st Edition and current OS mapping and on the RCAHMW Aerial Photographic interpretation. P.J.Schofield, OANorth, 19th November 2008.
