Full Description
One of three circular features shown on the 1st Edition Ordnance Survey map, annotated 'Hut Circles'. This feature is drawn with an 11 metre diameter. It may already have been partially disturbed by a track shown clipping the circle's southeastern side.[1] This feature has been cut through by a modern roundabout and all that is now discernible are a few stones, probably the remains of its east side. [3] The feature could not be located on the ground during survey work. [4]
