The National Monuments Service's description

This monument was reported by archaeologist Tony Miller who describes it as follows: "A circular hut site with a c. 2m internal diameter and collapsed walls remaining to a height of c. 1m. It is in an area of rough grazing on a small plateau some 15m above a stream to the south. It is partially built into a steep south facing slope. Part of the foundations are missing making it impossible to see where the entrance might have been."
