On the east bank of the Hamera River, 100m beyond present cultivation and on either side of the track running into Glendale is a raised stone-edged platform with a dyke around it. On the platform are the remains of three small and one large houses. Two more ruinous houses lie 20m upslope.
A large area of rig cultivation which lies within a boundary dyke surrounds the group of houses.
Information from J McDonald, J Robinson and A McNicol, 5 April 1989.
