A hut-circle is situated amongst a group of cairns on a gentle N- and E-facing slope between two stone dykes high up on the S side of the Pitcarmick Burn valley. The hut-circle, which lies at the top of the slope, measures 6.7m in diameter within a stony bank 2m in thickness and from 0.2m to 0.3m in height. The entrance is on the S. At least twelve small cairns are visible around the hut-circle and another five are situated on the opposite side of a gully to the WNW.
