Situated on a shelf on a S-facing slope and within a coniferous wood. This is a circular area (diam. 36m N-S; 36m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 5.5-7.5m; int. H 0.8-1m; ext. H 1.6-2.2m) with an external fosse (Wth of top 5m; D 0.2m at W to 1m at E). The probable entrance (Wth 2m) is at NNE.

In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 25 June, 2012
