The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on a SW-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Flesk River. The remains of a circular hut (diam. 1.8m) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.65m; H 0.3m) which protrudes above the surface of the bog. A break in the wall at N may indicate an entrance. Partially heather-covered rubble is scattered downslope and along the perimeter, obscuring the lower courses and the interior. There is another hut (KE076-049001-) c. 50m to the ENE.
