• SL017-022001 Enclosure
  Description

  Situated on the riverward crest of one of the grass-covered terraces that constitute the E-side of the Easky valley. This enclosure is subrectangular (28m NW-SE; 23m NNE-SSW) in plan, and is enclosed by a drystone wall (Wth c.3m; int. H 1.25m; ext. H 1.5m) with the lower courses of boulders. The enclosing wall is truncated at WNW by a later field boundary, on a NNE–SSW axis. The interior slopes down from E to W. A line of boulders, with a bank (H 0.6m) or accumulation of soil on its E side, extends from the enclosing wall at N for several meters through the interior to S. It lies c. 3.5m E of the W side of the enclosure. Conjoined to the E side of the enclosure, is a second, smaller, subrectangular enclosure (SL017-022002-). The shared wall between the two enclosures is most substantial at its N and S end but is narrower in between. There is no gap evident allowing access from one enclosure to the other.

• SL017-022002 Enclosure
  Description

  Situated on the riverward crest of one of the grass-covered terraces that constitute the E-side of the Easky valley. This enclosure is subrectangular or roughly D-shaped (17.5m NE-SW; 15m NW-SE) in plan and is enclosed by a stone bank (int. H 0.4; ext. H 0.7-1m). It is conjoined on its W side to a larger subrectangular enclosure (SL017-022001-). The shared wall between the two enclosures is most substantial at its N and S end but is narrower in between. There is no gap evident allowing access from one enclosure to the other. In the interior of this enclosure, an internal dividing wall extends in an arc from the enclosure wall at W to meet the enclosure wall at S, defining a subtriangular space (9.4m NW-SE; 6.5m NE-SW) in the SW quadrant. A gap, flanked by two orthostats, in the internal wall allows access to the space. The enclosed space encompasses a raised area or platform. On top of the platform is a semicircular setting of split boulders, possibly a hut site (SL017-022003-). In the NW quadrant of the enclosure is a second raised platform. Immediately to the E of this are the foundations of a rectangular stone-built house (SL017-022004-). Adjacent to the enclosure wall in the SE quadrant is a third small, irregular-shaped building (SL017-022005-). Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011

• SL017-022003 Hut site
  Description

  In an enclosure (SL017-022002-). This consists of a semi-circular (diam. c. 4.5-5m) setting of large split stones, possibly the basal course of a hut site. It is built on a raised area or platform enclosed within a subtriangular space (9.4m NW-SE; 6.5m NE-SW) in the SW quadrant of the enclosure. Compiled by: Patrick F.

• SL017-022004 House - indeterminate date
  Description

  In the N half of an enclosure (SL017-022002-). This comprises the foundations of a rectangular house (6m N-S; 2.5m E-W). It is defined on the E, S and W by substantial, regularly-shaped stone blocks. At N it abutts the enclosure wall. The entrance (Wth 1m) is off-centre in the S wall. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011

• SL017-022005 Building
  Description

  In an enclosure (SL017-022002-). In the SE quadrant of the enclosure is an irregularly-shaped structure (L 4.6m E-W) defined by a basal course comprising firmly-set stone blocks. It has remnants of a possible internal division and was interpreted by the fieldworker as an outbuilding rather than a habitation site. Compiled by: Patrick F.
