The National Monuments Service's description
In rough mountainous terrain, situated on a SSE facing slope overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Rectangular house (ext. dims. 4.2m NE-SW; 2.6m NW-SE) outlined by walls of roughly coarsed, drystone masonry (Wall T 0.95m). The NW and NE walls lie immediately below the present level of the peat (max. H 0.8m). Some stone has been robbed from the NNE corner. The SW wall is absent but its outline is still identifiable. Entrance (Wth 0.65m) at SW end of SE wall. The internal area is featureless.
