OS 6"map, (1963)
A settlement of six hut-circles, accompanied by field clearance heaps, discovered during field investigation on either side of the Allt na Beiste on a gentle south-facing slope. The huts vary in internal diameter from 4.0m to 10m and have entrances on the SSE sides. At a distance of about 3m from the SW side of 'D' is a rough circle of stones, with loose stones within, which may represent a small hut, but is probably the remains of a clearance heap.

The settlement is generally as described by the previous field investigator. A small area of scattered clearance heaps and a few lynchets surrounds the huts on the E side of the burn, but no field plots are evident. No clear traces of cultivation are visible on the W side of the burn.
