The remains of four subrectangular structures (each comprising slight traces of a building on a platform) are situated at the base of a steep slope a short distance to the W of the Glenbertle Burn and about 650m S of Old Hopsrig farmstead (NY38NW 61). The three northerly structures have been aligned with the natural slope whilst the fourth, on the S, has been set end-on into the slope.
