Hut site in Mangerton

In rough hill pasture, on a terrace on the SW-facing slope of Mangerton Mountain. The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 2.3m) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.3m). Two upright slabs (H 0.5m) are set along the W arc externally. Another hut site (KE084-043005-) adjoins this hut site to the ESE. A relict wall from a network of field boundaries (KE084-043004-) is immediately to the SW. There are another two hut sites (KE084-043002-, KE084-043003-) 17m to the S and 43m to the S, respectively.
