Full Description

site 4
Clearance stone structures
Two open curvilinear walls appear to fill no other purpose than to clear stone from a field. This does however imply that there was previously a building here from which all the stone came from. This building is likely to be a large enclosure shown upon the 1st (1854) but not the 2nd (1897) edition OS map.
