What is recorded here
Named on both the 1st ed. (1838) and latest ed. (1910) of the OS 6-inch map, but not mentioned in the OSL. Immediately down-slope, to the SW of a mound (KD017028001-) and unclassified castle (KD017028002-). A spring emerges from the base of low rock outcrop and fills a shallow, circular pool (diam. 2m; D 0.3m) which is retained along the NE side by a short length of partially collapsed dry-stone walling (Wth 0.4m; H 0.6m).
