  Description

  First shown on the 1848-50 edition of the OS 6-inch map, this is a shelter-like feature built against the steep face of a rocky knoll. An upright slab 1.5m E of and parallel to the base of the knoll is 2m long, 0.4m thick and 1.6m high. This supports the eastern edge of a sloping roof-slab, 2.3m by 1.6m, the western edge of which rests on a ledge at a height of c. 0.6m on the rock face. Closeby to the S there is another slab on the ground. It is clear from OS documents that this structure was in its present state in the middle of the 19th century. An entry in an OS Revision Name Book (1848-50) records a claim that it was a place of worship 'some hundreds of years ago'.
