Description
The cattle pound, which was later used as a salt store, likely dates from the early 19th century. It features rubble walls topped with weathered keel-shaped copings, except for the back wall, which has a finished cement fillet. The structure measures approximately 5 meters by 4 meters overall, with the end walls standing about 2.5 meters high. An iron gate is centrally located on the road-facing elevation.
