What is recorded here

On a ledge close to the base of s steep S-facing cliff in rough mountainous terrain. Approximately rectangular structure (dims. 2.3m E-W; 1.75m N-S) defined by the remains of a very ruined drystone wall. The E side is defined by a single large upright slab (L 1.26m; H 0.76). The N side is defined by three stones. Immediately outside the NE angle is an upright boulder. The evidence for the presence of the W wall is two boulders set on edge. Immediately outside the SW angle is a boulder. Only a few small stones mark the course of the S face. There are a number of stones of varying sizes at the edges and within the interior. This is almost certainly collapse from the afore mentioned cliff face. There is no indication of a doorway or hearth. The nature and function of this feature cannot be determined with any degree of confidence on the basis of the upstanding remains. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 28 June 2012
