The National Monuments Service's description
Three houses (WI010-041001-, WI010-041002-, WI010-041004-) (4.60 x 3.65m; 4.60m x 5.48 and 4.60m x 3.65m) form a cluster on a gentle E facing slope with steeper slopes below. The houses occur in the shelter of a low rock shelf and two of them (WI010-041001-, WI010-041002-) are contained within a D-shaped enclosure (WI010-041003-) (diam. 11m) which abuts onto the rock shelf. A fourth house (WI010-041005-) (c.5.50m x 4.60m) occurs 25m to the W.
