Ancient Settlement in Yorkshire (North).
The remains of four hut circles were discovered here by members of the Bradford Megalithic Meet on 18/7/04.
This infrequently-visited area may hold more surprises. Eric Cowling (1946) wrote of finding a 'circular bank of rubble', around 130 yards in circumference. This lay somewhere to the west of Askwith Lane and the Stoop Hill bridlepath. He also mentioned the remains of a 'similar enclosure' on flat ground to the north-east of the shooter's hut. (The remains found by the Bradford Meg Meet were to the south of the shooters hut).
