What is recorded here

This sweathouse (max. Wth 8.5m; H 1.5m) is built into a small ridge in an area of rough overgrown ground and woodland. The roughly wedge-shaped drystone chamber (Wth 2.47m tapering to 0.82m at roof level; H 1.7-1.9m) is accessed by a narrow lintelled opening (Wth 0.5m; H 0.89m) at WSW. The walls of the chamber are fairly straight sided and the roof is corbelled. Externally the chamber is enclosed with grass-covered earth.
