Full Description
The footings of a round-ended structure, built of stone and possibly clay, survive amongst heather and bracken on a slight shelf of a moderate slope. It measures 5.8 by 3.5m. A few trees are growing on and very close to it. Some attempt has been made to clear area by pulling heather and bracken but this has resulted in slight damage to the remains of the exposed stones. Possibly of medieval date.
