This is an oval grass-covered area (int. dims 44m NE-SW; 30m NW-SE) defined by a stone spread (Wth 3m; H 0.4m) and a slight external fosse (Wth 2m; D 0.3m). The entrance (Wth 0.6m) is at SE. A drystone-built oval house (int. dims 9.8m NE-SW; 4.4m NW-SE) with an entrance (Wth 0.5m) at S is inside the perimeter at NW and another house site (dims 4.7m NW-SE; 1.6m NE-SW) defined by the base of a wall is inside the perimeter at S with an entrance (Wth 0.6m) at NE.
