The National Monuments Service's description
Two sections of relict field boundary partially surround a cleared ‘green’ area. One section c. 22m in length, running N from an upstanding E-W boundary ending just where a track meets the green area. It has been leveled to the ground. At the northwest corner of this green area a second short section of relict field boundary was recorded . It was c.14m in length and was built along the top of a steep scarp. A hut site is c.12m to the northwest of this relict boundary and there is an historic sheep fold further to the east.
