The National Monuments Service's description
In rough commonage, on the break of a rocky SSW-facing slope. The remains of a circular hut (3.3m E-W; 3.1m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.65m; H 0.5m). The entrance is at N. There is a subrectangular feature (1.45m N-S; 1.2m E-W), built of flat slabs and open to the N, in the S half of the interior. Two other hut sites (KE075-043----, KE075-044001-) are c. 5m to the S and c. 12m to the SE, respectively.
