Description
An area of ruinous walling including the remains of a chimney stack to the north of the entrance to the ramp (HER16099). The stack pre-dates the ramp wall may be a survival of mid 19th-century buildings on the site. The north-east side of the stack is built up against the end of an older stone wall which runs up the valley side to join the main retaining wall.
