WellHopper saw from a distance on 1st Nov 2011 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 3 Access: 4 This site is on private land in the gardens of a farm building. We asked for permission to visit it but were refused,
It can be seen from a public footpath that runs through the farm grounds, although you are too far away to be able to see the layout of the site or its construction since most of it appears to be below ground level.
"Stone enclosure 15ft square, walls 12ft high; ruinous slate roof, 7 steps to water; dressing room 9ft by 15ft attached. 17th century."
