What is recorded here
Rectangular area (dims. c. 2.2m NW-SE; 1.3m NE-SW) defined by remains of a drystone wall (H 0.7m) NNW->NE->ESE and a natural boulder to SE and W->NW. There is an opening (H 0.65m) under the large boulder at W for possible shelter or storage. Lots of naturally occurring stone and rock outcrop in this area which makes this shelter well camouflaged on the hillside.
