The remains of a rectangular bipartite structure lie in an enclosed grazing field, adjacent to the causeway terminus on Hunda. It is aligned NE-SW and measures, overall, 17m by 5m. The walls, which are of roughly dressed blocks and rubble, are up to 0.75m thick and are part clay-bonded and part mortared. The best preserved portion of walling is located to the NE end and stands to 2m. Inside, the chambers are equal in size. There are no traces left of internal features or of windows or doors. An area of concrete slabbing, located outside the SE side of the building, although of more recent origin, may be the threshold to a doorway which has now gone.
