The National Monuments Service's description

Situated on a shelf on the N-facing slope of the Leean plateau, with cliffs (H c. 25m) rising over it c. 25m to the S. It is overlooking the Glencar valley and has wide views out NW-E-SE. This is one of three house sites and a drystone built structure on this shelf, although this one is not within view of the other features. It was first identified by Kytmannow in Area G. This is a rectangular grass-covered area (ext. dims 7.3m NW-SE; 4.1m NE-SW; Int. dims 4.1m NW-SE; 2.3m NE-SW) defined by the grass-covered foundations of walls (Wth 0.9-2m; H 0.2-0.5m). There is an entrance gap (Wth 0.7m) towards the centre of the SW wall.
