Full Description
NC 7698 0766 On the W flank of a hillock, and separated from NC70NE 13 by a small gully, is a hut circle, 10.5m in diameter, with an entrance in the SE. The west arc of walling has been mutilated by two sub-rectangular stone settings averaging 2.0m by 2.0m in size, which probably post-date the hut. Within the E arc of the hut is another sub-rectangular setting 1.6m by 1.6m. It is possibly a fortuitous arrangement of stone tumble as the stones are not earth-fast.(OS {WDJ}). The hut lies within a contemporary field system marked by field clearance heaps, the majority of which lie on theopposite E flank of the hillock.
Visited by OS (WDJ) 18 April 1964 and (JB) 17 August 1975.
