This hut-circle (ROG95 41, NC 7160 0754) measures 11.1m from NW to SE by 8.5m transversely within a stony bank spread to 1.8m in thickness and 0.4m in height. A gap in the line of the bank to the NW may have been the entrance, and a robbed clearance cairn overlies part of the E arc of bank. The hut-circle was originally noted as an amorphous structure (RCAHMS 1911; OS); the misidentification resulting from confusion with an an angle in a later field bank which runs past the S side of the hut-circle, creating the impression of a subrectangular structure to the SW.
