More information : (NY 93174775) Drywall building partly destroyed by quarrying. Md
pottery found on or in the inside floor level strata.
Dalton records a battle being fought near and the building being a
'church'. Possibly a hermit's cell, but only due to isolation. (1)
Hogg saw the site in 1943 after further damage by the quarry and
made a plan. There was much pottery in a midden and he saw also
stones from a small watermill; the site of the mill-wheel has been
destroyed. (2)
On the site indicated stands a fragment of drystone revet-
ment, 3m long by 1m high, and turf covered. There are no other
idientifiable remains of a building. Immediately to the NW the
ground has been removed by quarrying, which appears to have already
destroyed the majority of the remains. (3)
Condition as in report of 20 6 57. (4)
