the wall turns to NE [North East] across an opening of 27 ft. [feet] is the
end of a similar wall which runs more or less
parallel up the hill for 70 or 80 yds [yards] & terminates
in a cup-shaped depression about 12' int. [interior] diameter.
These walls are not defensive and are only
worthy of notice from their connection with
these small enclosures which are a regular
feature of them.
About 150 yds [yards] NW. [North West] of the first stone hut circle
are the ruins of another circular with an internal diameter
of 18 ft. [feet]. At the N. [North] end are indications of a small
oblong chamber (or perhaps of two oval ones) in the
thickness of the wall measuring about 6' x 4' with
an entrance from the interior. The entrance of the
main circle has been to the S. [South].
At the S.E. [South East] extremity of the flat top of the hill
are the ruins of a circular building with a
diameter of 34 ft. [feet] showing traces of chambers in
the thickness of the walls. There is much stone
lying all over the interior to a great extent covered
with grass. There is no height of walling anywhere
visible but the interior is lower than the sides.
The diameter over all is 34 ft. [feet] and that of the
interior appears to have been about 16 ft. [feet]. The
ent. [entrance] has been to the S.E. [South East] through a passage
about 13 ft. [feet] in length 13 ft. [feet] wide at the outer
