Notes
Estimated grid ref from Butler. This is a structure embedded into a settlemnt enclosure wall. Could be a hut circle that has been filled in or converted to a cairn.HER: The rectangular building '9' of 7 metres by 3 metres may be a more recent shepherds hut and a pile of stones over the boundary wall at '10' may originally have been a tinners' cache.
NGR for this record formerly set to SX 637 650 - now updated to that on the HER.
