There are six small cairns (ROG95 102), measuring up to 4m in diameter and 0.4m in height, on a low well-drained knoll, towards the N end of the enclosed ground of Rhilochan. A subrectangular hut (ROG95 102, NC 7484 0744), which measures 4.9m by 2.6m within boulder footings 0.8m in thickness and up to 1m in height, is situated on the S fringe of the group of small cairns. Fragments of an enclosure lie against the NW side of the hut and what may be wasted remains of a turf hut are situated immediately to the WNW.
The hut is depicted as roofed on both the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map (Sutherland 1879, 1907, sheet xcvi) and may have been associated with the farmstead to the NW (NC70NW 108).
