(13/02/2002) Centred SX 60596687. The remains of four hut circles (one previously recorded as SX 66 NW 44), a ruinous rectangular structure and the truncated remains of an associated sub-divided enclosure. These features lie immediately outside the streamworks flanking the right bank of Langcombe Brook and may have formed part of a more extensive settlement since disturbed by industrial activity.
The hut circles are all terraced into the foot of the steep SW facing slope and are generally in poor condition.
SX 60626685. Hut circle badly disturbed by track. 3.4m diameter with walls 0.5m wide and 0.2m high.
