What appear to be the remains of a subrectangular building are set end-on into the SW face of a low rise some 165m SW of Hoversta (HP60SW 54). The building, which is situated immediately SW of a later building and planticrub (HP60SW 55), is aligned NE and SW, and has been heavily robbed, surviving best on the SE where a 2m length of coursed outer face is still visible. Some edge-set facing-stones also remain at the SW end, and an orthostat stands on the line of the wall towards the NE end of the NW side, roughly coincidental with where there appears to be a subdivision in the building. An irregular shaped enclosure is attached to the SE side of the building. In addition, there are several quarry scoops on the low rise to the NW, another larger one to the SW (HP 60031 01740) and a row of three clearance cairns immediately S.
