Situated within a clearing in the SW corner of a conifer plantation, but recently planted with hardwoods, there are the remains of a building measuring 31.1m NW-SE by 6m in width, at the SE end, and 9.1m in width at the NW end over walls reduced to a turf-covered heather bank measuring up to 1.7m in thickness and 0.4m in height; the SE end is roughly square and contrasts with the rounded NW end. The principal entrance is situated roughly midway along the SW wall and its W side has a short out-turn; a second gap lies close to the W end and leads into an enclosure measuring 6.1m NW-SE by 4.3m internally, which is attached to the SW wall. A further break in the SW wall lies close to the SE and may be fortuitous. The SE half of the building has a shallow, hollowed-out interior and on the NE a drainage-trench flanked by an outer bank runs parallel to the length of the building. (see NO16SE 2).
