Full Description
B16 (NF666018) A subrectangular enclosure, c. 65 x 25 m, with a roughly built wall of turf and stone, except on the north where a rock outcrop is utilized. One, possibly two, circular stone structures are built against the rock face; shelters type E. Just inside the enclosure on the south, downslope, side there is a natrual outcrop; a scatter of more than a dozen stone blocks here suggest it may have once had a structure on it.
