Situated on a NW-facing slope of rising land in upland mountain pasture. This is one of a group of five house sites (LE010-076/077/079/081) in close proximity to each other that are probably part of an 18th century clustered upland settlement in the form of a clochan with associated outbuildings. The remains of grass-covered foundations of a subcircular shaped area (int. dims 3.5m x 2m) which is orientated along the slope of the land on which it is situated.
