A subrectangular overgrown area (29m E-W; 24.9m N-S) defined by a drystone wall (T c. 1.2m; H c. 0.6m) consisting of boulders at the base with smaller stones in the upper section. The SW corner and the S wall are slightly curved. Loose stones are scattered internally and externally along the base of the wall. The entrance is in the NW corner. The remains of N-S cultivation ridges are evident in the interior. This enclosure is named 'Sheep Fold' on the 1846 OS 6-inch map.
