What is recorded here
Not listed in either the SMR (1989) or RMP (1995). In upland rocky pasture, immediately SSW of a court tomb (SL031-040----) and built against the natural scarp that forms the S edge of the terrace on which the court tomb is sited. A small ruined and roofless circular, stone-built structure (int. diam. 1.5m) that is built into the natural slope. The interior is defined N-NW by a drystone wall (H 0.65m; T 0.9m) and NW-N, where recessed into the slope, by a stone-faced scarp (H 0.9m). A possible opening at E is obscured by rubble. This is probably post-1700 AD in date.
