The National Monuments Service's description
In rough heather-clad hill pasture, on a terrace on a S-facing slope to the W of The Paps of Dana. A roughly D-shaped area (dims. 10.7m NE-SW) defined by a well-constructed drystone wall (T 0.8m; H 1.4m) with a straight NE side (L 9m). There is an entrance (Wth 1.4m) at NE. The SW portion of the interior is raised (H 0.2m) and the NE portion is cut (D 0.5m) into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope and create a level interior. Two hut sites (KE076-006001-, KE076-006002-) are c. 40m to the S and another hut site (KE076-006004-) is c. 40m to the N. There is a relict field wall (KE076-006005-) c. 100m to the NE.
