Full Description
Discontinuous traces of walling run from V54.3 around the N and W of V54.1, apparently forming an enclosure c.20m wide around the settlement; the vegetation within the enclosure is a very lush grass, possibly suggesting the spreading of the midden, seaweed or other fertiliser to assist garden cultivation; these remains are absent from OS coverage. Several clearance cairns lie around the settlement, including one within enclosure V54.4.
