The National Monuments Service's description

In upland pasture, in the Bricklieve Mountains, on a sheltered terrace at the base of the steep rocky W face of a knoll. A road clips the W edge of the settlement. The settlement consists of the ruins of at least two rectangular houses (see SL040-067002-, SL040-067003-) with internal divisions and associated fields. Although not indicated on the OS 6-inch map (1837) these houses are probably 18th /19th century in date. They are located within a field system (SL040-063001-).
