The footings of two small rectangular stone-walled huts are situated on the high ground to the W of South Cuan. The first lies about 65m SW of an unnamed top (64m OD) and measures about 6m from NE to SW by 4m overall; the second lies a further 73m to the SSW and measures 7m from E to W by 3.5m overall. Too small for permanent occupation, the huts were presumably associated with grazing and do not seem to be related to the plots of plough rig nearby.
