Post medieval cache built within the east length of the prehistoric enclosure wall at Grimspound. This survives as a 1.4 meter by 1.1 meter by 1.3 meter deep oval shaped hollow created by removing stones from the core of the enclosure wall. The size of the structure suggests that it was probably used for storage purposes rather than as a shelter. Other details: MPP/140324 11/1/1995.
