This partly robbed rectangular sheepfold is situated in the angle of a drystone wall on a terrace above the W bank of the Glensherup Burn. Its interior has been subdivided to create a compartment some 2.2 broad along the SSW side, within which a small pen measuring 1.6m by 1m internally, has been built. The sheepfold is depicted for the first time on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Perthshire and Clackmannanshire 1866, sheet cxxvii).
