The National Monuments Service's description
The remains of this possible hut site consist of a C-shaped low earthen bank (max. external dimensions 7.2m N-S x 9.5m E-W: H 0.3m), with some possible stone revetting at SE corner on the outer edge of the bank. There is a break in the bank at W that is partly obstructed by an irregularly shaped low mound (2m N-S x 2.5m E-W). (pers. comm. H. Carey)
