Site Comments:

The site is located on a small rocky outcrop near the south-western corner of the entire proposed residential area. It consists of three stone structures, two of which appear to be associated with one another. This is based on similarities in building technique, feature characteristics as well as their closeness to one another. These two associated structures are located on a natural terrace approximately 20m north of a small stream. They are both circular and roughly the same size (3m diameter). The walling on both is quite rough, possibly due to deterioration, but may also indicate an unrefined building technique. The third structure consists of a semi-circular shaped stone wall located on the northern side of a natural boulder. This structure is made up of a single line of stones. Although some litter and pieces of metal were observed in the direct vicinity of the site, no cultural material was observed directly related to the structures. There is also no indication of the age of the structures, nor of their function.
