Situated 3m to E (downslope) from a hut (MA085-068----) and immediately W of a ruined wall (MA085-069001-). The house consists of a house of subrectanguar plan (ENE–WSW c. 6.50m; NNW–SSE 2.90m overall). It is defined by relatively small boulders and stones (H 0.30m max.) set in the sward, but its planis indeterminate at the west-south-west- ern end, but appears to be rounded off.
