The very ruinous remains of a small rectangular structure lie 18m from the coast edge. Part of the structure is formed from free-standing, drystone walls and part from stones revetted into the side of a natural rise. The structure measures 3m by 3.9m and stands up to 0.9m high. The structure may be part of a noost or shed.
