There is a building, a disturbed enclosure and two irregular quarry-pits disposed along the E edge of the deeply incised valley of the Slackshaw Burn. The building measures 10m by 2.6m within a stony bank 1.3m in thickness and 0.6m in height, with an entrance on the NE. Some 200m to the SE there is a bell-pit (NS 6919 2474) and a circular quarry-pit (NS 6922 2477).
