Full Description
Depopulated settlement and rig and furrow. South of the present track are four longhouses with approximately 10 enclosed fields of rig and furrow. Several small enclosures near to the houses have distinct rigs, possibly 'lazy beds'. A sunken track runs across the river and climbs up Gauns Hill. North of the present track are two longhouses and four enclosures, also the remains of a corn-drying kiln.
