The National Monuments Service's description
In commonage, on a gentle SE-facing slope, at the base of a steep craggy outcrop to the N. The remains of an oval hut (3.3m N-S; 2.2m E-W) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.75m; H 0.8m). There is an entrance (Wth 0.6m) at ENE. Loose stones are scattered within the level interior. Another hut site (KE075-029001-) adjoins the SE arc, externally.
