This retaining circle appears to be the possible remains of a hut circle. Vis=30/6/1976 (grinsell). Retaining circle or hut. Diameter 5m, height of stones 0.3m. Grinsell states that worth describes another circle of 6 stones adjoining the se of this circle. Vis=5/8/1977 (os). The remains of two hut circles at (approx) sx62186342 and sx62196343, both in poor condition.

NB. Grinsell had two entries Cornwood 11a and 11b which are both covered in Ranny Brook N2. This record is here for completeness of Grinsell lisings but is otherwsie marked as a duplicate.
