Full Description

BY21; Enclosure. On south-east sloep. Rectangular, 110 x 50m, of piled stone walls with internal sub-divisions.
Branigan & Foster 2000, 134.

nb - Foster identifies this as a head dyke in his description of chambered tomb BY20 (smr no. 9589), but the description and location of BY21 do not agree with his description of its relationship with BY20, and the identification should therefore be ignored.
