Field Visit (21 March 2012)
Thie remains of this building stand on a narrow terrace on the NE face of the low ridge along which a section of the boundary wall of the northern enclosure runs. The structure has been very heavily robbed and is now partly obscured by spreads of field-cleared stone from the adjacent cultivated ground. All that is now visible of it is its SE end, a 5m length of the adjoining SW wall and a rickle of stones that might represent the line of the front of the building on the NE. The SE end-wall measures 1.3m in thickness over inner and outer facing-stones and the building was about 4.2m broad.
