SiteComments: 

This is the location of the ruins of a stone-walled structure, rectangular in shape. It has an entrance on the eastern side. The walls are approx. 50cm high and the structure measures 3m by 4m. Another similar structure is located a few metres further east but only the bottom of the foundation remain. It is difficult to ascribe the structure to a specific builder or ethnicity. It is possible that this structure served as dwelling and is related to more traditional layouts as at Site CLB 17 close-by. It has been documented that traditional LIA settlement layout was supplemented by rectangular walling by the late 19th and early 20th century.
