The National Monuments Service's description
In the W quadrant of a ringfort (TS088-036002-). A lintel of the souterrain has partially collapsed revealing a passage (Wth 0.87m x at least 0.67m H x at least 3.8m L) constructed of dry-stone walling with flat stone lintels. Rubbish has been deposited in the souterrain. Runs in an E-W direction. The walls appear to be narrowing towards the E end.
