Full Description

On a SE-facing slope, is a heather and bracken-covered hut circle measuring approxi 11 by 10.5m within a wall spread from 2-2.5m by up to 0.4m high; entrance is in ENE on line of the longer axis.
Some 60m to the NW is a disturbed mound which may be a clearance heap. There is no further evidence of stone clearance, but the area around the hut circle has a smooth aspect and is relatively free of stones suggesting former cultivation.
