Description
A large stone-built wheel pit, still largely intact when visited in July 2006, apart from the eastern short wall. Externally the pit was 14.10m east-west by 3.65m and was up to 3.65m deep internally. A building lay directly to the north side of the wheel pit, a 0.20m gap between the two. This building was much collapsed and measured 7.25m east-west by up to 4.4m. The state of collapse meant that it was hard to determine the internal structure of the building. A small stone structure was attached to the southeast corner of the wheel pit measuring 3.3m by 2.2m. Adjacent, and north of this, leat NPRN 289626 exited the wheel pit. J.J. Hall, Trysor, 9 September 2006
