This settlement (LID96 105) is situated on the valley floor immediately to the N of the Black Burn. It is oval on plan, measuring 37m from NE to SW by 30.5m transversely within an extensively robbed stony bank spread to 4m in thickness and up to 1m in height. The interior has been disturbed by drains which have mutilated what may be an entrance on the SE. The fragmentary footings of what may be a rectangular building lie in the NNW quadrant of the interior, and there is a small clearance heap in the SE. Immediately outside the settlement to the NE there are the mutilated stony footings of what may be another building (LID96 106, NY 4759 8892) measuring 6.4m from ENE to WSW by 4.5m internally. A gap in the S side may be an entrance.
