Interpretation comments Two hut circles without finds or firm dates. Only one excavated but not clear which one, possibly B, 'the first, better preserved'. The other is at 1626 6094. Stone walled hut 17 feet diameter, S facing entry, no finds, no evidence of an enclosure. On recent visit doubt about location due to steepness of site (Silvester and Hankinson 2004). See NMR letter 18/2/1950 to WE Griffiths. No image available.
