Only one timber house platform - constituting a homestead - is visible, distinguished by a regular turf- covered back scoop and well-formed and consolidated front scarp. It measures 14.0m NW-SE by 8.0m. All the other scoops appear to be quarries having irregular edges with much stone exposed.
Surveyed at 1:2500.
