What is recorded here

On the crest of a hill with panoramic views. Identified on an aerial photograph (GSI S 476, 1973-7). It is indicated as a trig. station on the 1900 revision of the OS 6-inch map. As it is the highest point for miles around it has also been utilised for locating television masts. It consists of a roughly raised circular area (diam. c. 15m; H 0.2m) composed of rock with several large boulders around its edge. A bank (H 0.7m; Wth 3m) runs for 10m NW-SE along the NE edge, possibly all that remains of a former field boundary. This may be the remains of a much denuded cairn.
