Full Description

Centred on NF 6849 0351
Stone feature set against rock face. Appears as a well-drained, stone-filled area with green grass etc in contrast to heather peat bog which has been used for peat cutting, although partly obscured by heather. Appears retangular 5m deep by at least 3.5m long, but hard to define. Has cultivation ricges immediately in front, cut away by peat cutting. 7.5m to the east is another heavily obscured stoen setting, which appears like a small oval shelter 2m in length, with other indications to the rear.
