The National Monuments Service's description
In the S quadrant of ringfort (WM026-081----), just inside the entrance at SW is an irregular-shaped house site. It is defined by a prominent L-shaped earthen bank, whereby the shorter portion adjoins the inside of the ringfort bank and the open end is adjacent to the ringfort entrance. Adjoining the opposite end of the L-shape is a slight curvilinear-shaped earthen bank which also faces open toward the ringfort entrance.
See attached sketch plan of monument drawn by the ASI.
