Full Description
A small area of rig is visible on an aerial photograph, although during a recent ground survey done in December 2000 nothing is now visible on the ground. To the west of this however, there are the remains of two rectangular enclosures and a rectangular building, located in rough ground. The enclosure to the west survives as an L-shaped stony bank, 21m long north-south and 8m east-west while the eastern one survives as a J-shaped bank circa 12m by 14m. The building is aligned north-south and divided into two rooms, the larger being 6.3m by 2.3 internally and the smaller 3.2m by 2.9m. Both the building and enclosures have suffered from disturbance in the past.
