Roof is constructed of large, bevelled stones in 2 courses with single stones closing each course at the gables; a monolithic stone with cruciform moulding closes the ridge. Orientated east-west with entrance to west and small opening for light in east wall. Spring rises through square opening in floor. Square enclosure wall of dry-stone has narrow gap facing well entrance. At present (1983) somewhat overgrown. | ||
