There are two shieling-huts set at the back of a small terrace on the SW slopes of Ben Geary. Both have been built against rock outcrop which may have been quarried. The more westerly hut, which is the better preserved, may be of two compartments. These huts may form part of a group strung out along the terrace (see NG26SE 2).
