Full Description

B121 (NF658003) Incomplete circular structure of stones, 2.5 m diam., on bare rock close to relict land boundary on watershed along the crest of Benn na Moine. The wall still stands two stones high on the south and west sides. This is unlikely to be a shelter in this location, but a more permanent hut here is also difficult to understand.
