Site of two possible hut circles which show up on a 2003 aerial photograph on the northwest side of Burgh Island. Other details: Email & aerial photograph.
Hegarty, C. + Knight, S. + Sims, R., 2013-2014, South Devon Coast Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment Survey National Mapping Programme Project (Interpretation). SDV351146.
Unfortunately the 2003 aerial photograph was not available to view at the time of the survey. Nothing is visible in this location on the 1940s aerial photographs, although a possible circular banked feature is visible on aerial photographs from 1986 at approximately SX6465643975. However vegetation growth makes interpretation problematic.
