This drystone pen is built against a single large boulder on a rocky terrace at the foot of one of the major outcrops extending across Aird Cholla from E to W. The boulder forms its N side, and while the wall has tumbled outwards on the E and W, elsewhere on the S it stands up to 0.7m high. The interior is subrectangular on plan, measuring 1.3m from N to S by 1.2m transversely.
This is almost certainly the site described as a shelter by Foster and Krivanek (in Branigan and Foster, 2000, 135, BY26).
