Stretching across two small fields (SW and NE) of rocky pasture, on a gentle SE-facing slope with excellent views of the surrounding landscape ENE-SW and overlooked by higher ground SW-ENE. Associated with a circular enclosure (CL034-249----) in the SW field. Identified on satellite imagery (Digital Globe 2015). Partially depicted on the 1842 edition of the OS 6-inch map. A short, collapsed, sod-covered field wall (L 6m) abutting the circular enclosure at NNE conjoins it with a possible rectangular enclosure in the N corner of the field. The remains of an L-shaped sod-covered field wall are located to the immediate E of the circular enclosure. This is truncated to NE by a relatively modern field boundary (long-axis NW-SE) which divides the two fields. A collapsed sod-covered field wall (int. H 0.3m; ext. H 0.4m; Wth at top 1.5m; overall Wth 3.4m) extends (long-axis NE-SW) from the SW side of the L-shaped field wall. The rest of this field across whole SW area is occupied by natural linear rock outcropping (long-axis WNW-ESE).
The field to NE has a lot of rock outcrop forming no discernible pattern. A well-formed sod-covered field boundary (int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.45m; Wth at top 0.9m; overall Wth 2.25m) extends across the SE side of this field. This forms a sinuous line along the SW half and is linear along the NE half.
