At ND 0292 6037, on gently sloping NNE-facing ground, there is an obscure, turf-covered hut circle, measuring 7.0m, E-W by 6.0m within a stone wall spread generally to 1.5m, but seemingly 3.5m in the W, and 0.2m high. The simple entrance is in the E. A wasted low wall running E springs from the NE side of the entrance. There is no evidence of contemporary cultivation; later cultivation has taken place in the area.
