Lying on a small level area on the S bank of the Allt Beinn Deirge, between a large enclosure dyke and the river, at 80m OD is a rectangular structure built of large boulders. The ruinous remains measure 5m E-W by 3m N-S over walls 1m+ wide.
Three lazy-beds lie in a D-shaped enclosure which abuts the river just to the N of the ruinous structure.
Visited by M Wildgoose 5 April 1990.
