The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, near the edge of a cliff overlooking the valley of the Flesk River. The remains of an oval hut (4m E-W; 3m N-S) defined by the lower, roughly constructed courses of a stone wall (T 0.35m; H 0.45m). A large rock outcrop forms the enclosing element at N. The interior slopes down to the W and is obscured by partially grass-covered rubble.
