What is recorded here

In farmland. A drystone-built souterrain, roughly T-shaped in plan. Access is gained via a modern gap at S end of 1st chamber (L 2.1m, Wth 1.1m) which runs NE-SW. A 2nd chamber (L1.2m, Wth 1.3m) extends off NE end and runs NW-SW. An inaccessible creep (L c. 2m, Wth 0.8m) off NW end may lead to a 3rd chamber.
