Notes

There may have been up to 80 recesses, some of which have collapsed; ground level has risen and original level not known; dimensions vary, and some recesses may have been subdivided originally; wall is some distance from farm, beside driftway; was probably used as heather site.

Survey and conservation of the wall and recesses took place in 2012-3 on behalf of the owners and the North York Moors National Park: https://www.northyorkmoors.org.uk/looking-after/our-projects-and-partnerships/previous-projects/bee-bole-conservation-project
