What is recorded here

On a W-facing hillslope in undulating pasture. The foundations of another building (TS060-057005-) lie 7.5m to the E and an enclosure (TS060-057002-) with the foundations of an internal building (TS060-057004-) lies 20m to E. Very poorly preserved building (15.8m N-S; 7.6m E-W), aligned N-S, constructed of roughly coursed limestone (wall T 0.8m). The S gable wall (surviving L 5.2m) is best preserved for a length of 2.5m to a height of 1.5m. There is a possible internal chamber at the S end (Wth 2.3m), the internal division for which is defined by scarp with a rubble mound at the W end (Wth 1.7m). The outline of the building is visible where wall facing survives along the N gable and in the E wall, very little of the W wall survives above ground apart from a length of wall face towards the S end of the building. The interior is strewn with rubble. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
