I got the word from "Pier" from Jim Egan and have come to think of it as one kind of rock pile: a pile built on a slope as if offering a deliberate level surface at ground level, used to support a structure now gone. I was out for the weekend explore, 2 weekends ago, and came across a couple of these at the Cherry Brook Conservation Land in Weston. They don't quite fit the bill as "Piers" but for some reason they do not seem ceremonial.
A few views of one.Here is another from nearby but not in direct association to the first.This pile was next to a pit dug in the hill top.
These were on the higher land just west of the brook, which you cross on a causeway.
