Remains of an enclosure or structure recorded by walkover survey by CFA in 2012 ahead of proposed access track upgrading.

Remains of an enclosure or structure recorded by walkover survey by CFA in 2012 ahead of proposed access track upgrading. It comprised a denuded, low turf covered stone wall forming an L-shape measuring 5 m by 5 m and defined by walls measuring 1.2 m wide by 0.1-0.3 m high. A fragment of drystone wall, measuring 4 m by 1 m by 0.4 m high lay to the west, and a second section of L-shaped wall, immediately to the east measuring 12 m by 2.5 m, with walls 1 m wide by 0.1 m high. Several low piles of stone were recorded in the near vicinity to the east and south, some of which may relate to the structural remains, and/or to the bank associated with the track. The feature possibly represents the poorly preserved remains of an enclosure or sheepfold associated with Berryburn farm (NJ04NE0012)
