The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on top of a low rise of ground with good views in all directions are the possible poorly preserved remains of a hut site. The monument consists of a small sub-circular shaped sunken area (int. diam. 6m NW-SE x 5.9m E-W) defined by a poorly preserved sod covered remains of the wall of the hut site of which only the wall footings survive.
