The National Monuments Service's description
Area Possible Structure: Includes removed field boundaries and may be a form of
building / structure. This point is a cross / junction of some tracks shown or implied
on 1835 Survey so may be medieval / post-medieval. This building, if it exists, may
be associated with a quarry marked on S side of LMA here on 1835 survey. The focal
point was a circular bowl-oven with reddened sides:
Area ditch with burnt bone: One area of cremated bone and hearth sweepings visible
as a fill in a ditch. Date unknown. Several areas of cremated bone found in a ditch
oriented SW-NE. The cremated bone may be in cuts through the ditch but the whole
feature is likely to be dumped food waste. Burnt animal bones were identified.
