Full Description
NF87NW 26 8017 7539
The excavations and report (completed by E Campbell) by Prof. Atkinson, 1957 state the existence of a previously undiscovered 'circular robbed building' located at NF 8017 7539.
E Campbell, NMRS MS/855/1, c1988
This building is identified as site A in Campbell's report, where it is described as being '80m SSW of the wheelhouse'. It seems likely that the site of this and of SMR 1167 (Atkinson's site B) should be transposed in the SMR, thus locating this site at NGR NF 80117533 MML 31.1.2000
