The National Monuments Service's description
Listed as ‘Hut site possible’ in the RMP (1996). Situated on a N-facing slope in an area of karst and thin vegetation and surrounding a natural fold in the slope. A circular enclosure (int. diam. 17.5m N-S; 17m E-W) defined by a drystone wall (Wth 0.5-1m; H up to 1m) with the slabs set on edge and the larger axis pointing towards the centre. On inspection in 1998 this was deemed to be of 18th or 19th-century construction.
