NC70NW 56 718 063.
Centred on NC 718 063, on the lower NE slopes of Cnoc Dubh, is a settlement of three similar hut circles (A-C) now reduced and heather-covered. The entrances are in the SE.
'A' measures 6.5m diameter within an indeterminate low wall.
'B' measures 8.5 by 6.5m inside a vague wall-spread.
'C' measures an estimated 10.5m by 9.5m across internally. The wall survives in the NE half only where it is visible as a spread 2.0m and up to 0.5m high.
A few clearance heaps nearby indicate associated land-use.
Surveyed at 1:10,000.
