In rough pasture, on a rise in an area of cutaway bog on a SE-facing slope and within a network of relict field boundaries (CO115-106004-). The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 4m) defined by a jumbled stone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.45m), which has collapsed inwards obscuring the interior. Another hut site (CO115-106001-) is 4m to the N.
