What is recorded here

A circular two storey stone building (diam. c. 9m; H 6m) stands in the centre of enclosure SL014-04001. It is constructed of roughly coursed limestone and is bonded with a lime mortar. The base of the structure is obscured due to heavy growth of nettles and brambles and farm machinery. A pointed arch, indicating a doorway or window is located on the north side on ground level but the details of this or any other features cannot be seen through the overgrowth. A string course above the pointed arch ope indicates the first floor. According to the former landowner, Mr Jack Lindsey, access to the building was gained via a doorway on the first floor that is now covered with ivy. Two windows on the first floor, one of which is blocked with modern concrete blocks, both are set in pointed arch opes. A second string course is partly obscured by a waterproofing material overlying the roof, which is of modern concrete construction. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 21 April 2011
