About 250m north-east of Blackstank steading there are the remains of a single stone-walled hut-circle. Oval on plan, the structure measures about 11m by about 9m. To the west and south, several stone clearance heaps have been identified. These may be the remains of cultivation plots associated with the hut-circle.
