Full Description

A square enclosure, 24m on each side, is shown on the 2nd edn OS 25in map (1902) (1) but not identified. Only one wall is shown on the 3rd edn map (c 1930) (2) but the 5th edn (1962) (3) shows and identifies a complex sheep fold on the site and it islikely that the earlier features served the same function.
