The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on SSW facing slope of Bawnloge Hill in mountainous pasture. A hut site (DG029-057001-) is located 2m to the NNW. A third hut site (DG029-056) is located 110m to the NW and two house sites (DG029-053/054) are located 140m to the SE. A panel of rock art (DG029-051) is 57m to the NE. Present remains consist of a sub-rectangular shaped area (dims. 3.7m ENE-WSW; 3.45m NNW-SSE) defined by grass covered wall footings (Wall T 1.1m) with no evidence of any entrance feature. A field wall which is part of an extensive field system (DG029-052) is 14m to the N and 15m to the E which appear to have enclosed a field containing these two hut sites.
