What is recorded here

Under the southern bank of a Conva ringfort, a hidden chamber waited for a harvester to break the ground in 1986. Stone walls rise less than a metre before leaning inward to form a corbelled roof, while a low lintelled opening points northwest into a blocked creepway. The chamber is small enough to touch on all sides, yet large enough for one person to stand inside the dark.

In ringfort (CO034-03301-), under levelled bank to SSE. Discovered in 1986 during harvesting. Collapse revealed roughly circular chamber (2.7m N-S; 2.7m E-W); walls roughly coursed with stone to a height of 0.76m; roof corbelled. Opening (Wth 0.63m; H 0.38m), with stone jambs and lintel, to creepway at NW side. Creepway filled with earthen debris and inaccessible.
