Enclosures and hut circles at Petre's Pits Bottom. The southern enclosure is D-shaped with three sides defined by substantial walls up to 1.8m wide and 1m high and the fourth side formed by a steep scarp slope which was probably the result of tin working activity. It contains the partial remains of one stone hut circle to the north and interior dividing walls.
