On top of an elevation within an enclosure (CO126-025004-). The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 4m) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.4m), most of which is scattered along the slopes outside the perimeter. The entrance (Wth 0.8m), which is situated along the NE arc, is indicated by a slab (H 0.7m; 0.5m x 0.2m) set at right angles to the perimeter. The slab indicating the opposite side of the entrance has fallen.
