There is a group of six huts and three pens among boulders below the fort at Corragan Mor (NM48NE 56). The largest hut (1074) is situated 15m from the fort wall on the SE side. It is sub-rectangular on plan and measures 3.5m from NW to SE by 1.5m transversely within a drystone wall 0.6m in thickness and 0.4m in height. Two (249, 1078) of the other five are situated to the 17m NW and 19m E of the fort respectively, while a group of three (1075, 1079, 1080) stand 20m to the its SW. There are also three pens (1077, 1080-1), the largest of which measures 2m in internal diameter. Fragments of dyke among the boulders were presumably built to aid the management of stock.
