There are two hut circles, 'A' (NC 5746 0960) and 'B' (NC 5751 0962) mutilated by forestry ploughing and planting. They measure internally about 11.0m in diameter and about 12.0m SE-NW by 10.0m respectively. Both are most clearly defined around the W arc. A few damaged clearance heaps can be seen in the vicinity of the huts.
The feature at NC 5748 0963 is a modern sheepfold.
Surveyed at 1:2500 and 1:10 000
