The National Monuments Service's description
Located on relatively high ground in a low-lying landscape with good views in all directions. It was discovered during land clearance in 2005 when four lintels were removed from a drystone-built passageway (L 5.5m; Wth c. 1.8m; max H. 1.4m) running E-W with both ends blocked by collapsed material. Seven roof lintels are in situ with smaller packing stones in between them.
