The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on the lower N-facing slopes of The Paps of Dana. The remains of an oval hut (1.8m N-S; c. 0.3m E-W) defined by a roughly constructed, collapsed drystone wall (T c. 0.5m; H 0.9m). The interior is totally obscured by rubble. Another hut site (KE068-105001-) lies 6m to the E.
