The National Monuments Service's description
Located in SW quadrant of an enclosure (SL011-004001-). Remains comprise of a roughly rectangular area (8m NE-SW; 5.5m NW-SE) defined on the NE site by the low footings of a drystone, rubble limestone, wall (Wth 1.2m; int. H 0.35m) and on the NW, SE and SW sides by a slight inward facing scarped edge (int. H 0.25m). A small section of degraded stone wall footings survives at the corner at S. The original entrance is not recognisable. The interior of the hut site is lower than the level of the enclosure.
