The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a SW-facing slope on top of a broad hill. Listed as ‘Enclosure’ in the SMR (1992) and as ‘Well, possible’ in the RMP (1996). On inspection in 1997 this was found to be subrectangular enclosure (int. dims. 11m E-W; 10m N-S) of modern construction with drystone walls (H 0.6-1m). There was no well in the vicinity.
