The National Monuments Service's description

This possible house site (7m E-W; 7m N-S), square in plan, is located on the line of the fosse of the enclosure (GA113-110002-) at the E end of the N side. It is constructed of large slabs/boulders set on edge and stones, now grass covered. The outer wall of the enclosure has been reused and forms the E wall of the house. Another similar house site (GA113-110010-) lies to the S and there is another house (GA113-110008-) in the interior.
