What is recorded here
Not shown on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map. At the base of localised hollow, on slight S-facing slope, in undulating boggy mountain pasture. Views are excellent to S but elsewhere much obscured by higher ground. Remains comprise a rectangular hut or house (dims. 4m NNW-SSE; 3m ENE-WSW) defined by wall footings (max H 0.2m; T 0.6m). There is no definite break to indicate the position of the doorway. The site is constructed against the ENE side of a now relic NNW-SSE orientated field wall. This is a post-1700 AD monument.
