Notes: Paul Buck noticed this and kindly supplied the 10-figure NGR. Could it be a tinners’ hut, a peat cutters’ hut or a lookout hut? There’s nothing on old maps to suggest any of these so I’ve put it under the classification of ‘Minor Ruins’ until I can find out more.

Steve Granger, who also kindly supplied the Featured Image, suggests that this rough shelter could be a shepherd’s shelter.
