The National Monuments Service's description
In rough commonage, on the break of a rocky S-facing slope. This system covers an area measuring c. 100m x 100m and comprises relict field walls (T c. 0.5m; H 0.65m) which enclose irregular areas divided by rock outcrops, particularly on the N side. Elsewhere, isolated stretches of wall appear and disappear above the surface of the bog, showing no discernible pattern. Two hut sites (KE075-039001-, KE075-039002-) are c. 30m to the N.
