Full Description
Remains of settlement, which according to the OS Name Book (1870) was traditionally the site of a camp. The remains comprise three hut circles (diameters 6.09m, 7.31m and 10.97m), the walls consisting of earth and stone, with entrance in the east side. There are associated field banks and stone clearance heaps but due to the vegetation, delineation is impossible. No trace of the 'camp' could be found during OS site visit in 1968.
