Hut site in Gowlane

In rough hill pasture, with occasional outcropping rock on a S-facing boggy slope. The remains of a D-shaped hut site (2.4m E-W) defined by a curving stone wall (T 0.45m; H 0.2m) with a straight W side (L 3.1m) formed by the linear face of outcropping rock. The stones of the wall protrude above the surface of the bog. The level interior is raised (H 0.15m) at the S and cut (D 0.2m) into the upslope at N to compensate for the hillslope.
