Historic stone walled enclosure. The structure consists of dry packed stone walls which are joined at right angles, forming a rough rectangular structure. The walls are approximately 40cm wide and have an average height of some 20-30cm. The walls orientated north-south are approximately 15 metres long and those orientated east-west 9 metres. There is a small square enclosure in the North eastern corner which measures 4x6 metres. A large opening or possibly entrance is visible on the northern side. The stones used for this feature were also probably taken from the LIA enclosures close-by. It is
possible that it was used as a stock pen/ kraal by early or mid 20th century farmers.
