A group of five stone-walled huts is situated in heather-covered ground amongst the old stream courses to the N of the Luibeg Burn. The huts are subrectangular on plan and range in length from 7.2m to 10.7m by between 3.2m and 5.1m in breadth over walls between 0.7m and 0.9m in thickness and up to 0.9m in height, with an entrance in one side. One of the huts (MAR93 119) is embanked on the outside, two of the huts have outshots (MAR93 119-120) and the two largest huts, of which one (MAR93 122) has an enclosure attached to its SE end, are subdivided into two unequal compartments (MAR93 122-3).
