The National Monuments Service's description

Located at the tip of a small NW-SE spur on a SE-facing slope in the valley of a NE-SW stream. It was first identified by Kytmannow as a hut site in Area D, a cluster of four house sites within c. 15-50m of each other. This is a grass-covered roughly rectangular area (ext. dims 5.4m NNW-SSE; 3.3m ENE-WSW; int. dims 3.7m NNW-SSE; 2m ENE-WSW) defined by slight earthen banks with some stones, but an entrance cannot be identified.
