The National Monuments Service's description
In rough pasture, at the S edge of a level break on a S-facing slope. A subrectangular area (32m N-S; 21m E-W) defined by a partly collapsed drystone wall (T 0.8m; H 1.2m). Loose stones and small boulders are scattered in the overgrown interior. There are traces of cultivation ridges in the interior also. A hut site (KE084-059004-) internally abuts the E wall. There is an entrance gap (Wth 0.8m) in the W wall. A stream runs along the outside of the N wall. There is a hut site (KE084-059002-) c. 30m to the WSW.
