Common Name: Site BRME2
Site Comments:

The site is characterized by a fairly flattish, approximate 2.5m in diameter circular shaped stone overhang. The bottom of the overhang is filled in with a stacked stone wall to create the enclosure. Enclosure remains comprised of typical white ashy dung deposits and more recent dung remains signaling use of the site as a stock enclosure most probably used by young boy herders to keep sheep / goat lambs. The site can fairly confidently be dated as younger than 100 years, implying that the site is not formally protected under the NHRA 1999, but does constitute a contemporary cultural heritage site and supporting the general observation of fairly recent occupation of the plateau terrain.

Directions:
Site BRME2 is situated more or less 100m east of the proposed line route.
