The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on a terrace of a S-facing slope. This structure, which is 18th/19th-century in date, consists of two straight drystone walls situated at right angles to each other. The E-W wall (L 6.75m; T 0.65m; H 1.8m) has a closed-up doorway (Wth 0.75m) 2m from its W end. The N-S wall (L 4m; T 0.65m; H 1.8m) joins the E-W wall, at its S end. A mound (Wth 1.2m; H 1.6m) of loose stones abuts the W side of the N-S wall. The interior is cut into the upslope on the NW side. Loose stones are scattered around the interior and exterior. A sheep path skirts the S side.
