The National Monuments Service's description
In rough, heather-clad hill pasture, on the SE facing slopes of The East Pap of Dana. The remains of a curvilinear stone wall (T 0.65m; H 0.4m), which protrude intermittently above the surface of the shallow bog, extend (L c. 40m) to the NE and then slowly curve to the N for a distance of c. 35m. Loose rubble is embedded in the bog beside the wall. Two hut sites (KE076-068002-, KE076-068003-) are c. 70m to the W and there is another hut site (KE076-068001-) c. 55m to the W.
