Situated on a ridge is a small stone-walled hut circle levelled into the slope, measuring 5.4m in internal diameter. The rubble and slab stone wall is tumbled and spread 2.5m wide. The wall is clubbed to the S side of the entrance which lies in the E. On terraces to the E and W there
is evidence of contemporary cultivation.
