A souterrain was uncovered during land clearance work. It had been unroofed and filled at some time in the past and could only roughly be traced through some of its length. No chambers were found, nor subsidiary passages.
A quantity of souterrain ware was found on the floor of the entrance, the only part excavated, which sloped gently down from ground level. No remains of houses were noted on the bulldozed land surface.
