The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a gentle W-facing slope in an area of mixed rough rock and patchy grazing. Listed as ‘Enclosure’ in the SMR (1992) and the RMP (1996). Indicated by a solid line on the 1916 OS 6-inch map. On inspection in 1997 this was found to be an irregular field defined by a partially collapsed single drystone wall. This enclosed field is one of several forming a cluster to the N, E and SE of a ringfort (CL006-159----).
