A complex site with several features some evidently having gone through two or three periods of use. It consists of what were until recently 3 sheepfolds at the extremities of an area about 22m x 40m bounded by a rough wall at the N side within this area are also the footings of a rectangular building.

a. On the W side a two compartment structure of uncoursed stone built on a levelled site. It consists of a rectangular building with single entrance 7m x 4m., and a smaller adjoining annexe connected by a sheep 'creep'. Probably once a shelter or hafod roughly converted for use as a fold.

b. A sheepfold, roughly oval in shape and crudely built of piled stones, maximum diameter 8m. Two wide gaps exist at the E and NW.

c. A small structure, quite roughly built of piled stones, utilizing the area's boundary wall to complete two of the sides of its once approximately rectangular form. Entrance at W corner. Possibly once a shelter of hafod.

d. Immediately SW of c. are the neat footings of what appears to have been a substantial building. Carefully laid, its clear rectangular outline is in sharp contrast to the other, somewhat carelessly constructed features of the site. The SW side is destroyed or obscured, but the E internal corner remains, which along with the two better preserved corners on the N and W sides, give an overall dimension of 6m x 8.5m and internal dimension of 6.8m x 4.3m. There is no gap in the three surviving walls entrance therefore presumed to have been on the missing SE side. Walls are 0.85m thick. Approximately 3m out from the missing side of the structure are set a pair of orthostats 2m apart and 0.75m high seeming to be part of a boundary wall now largely missing in this area. They possibly mark the entrance way into the precincts of house. 440m above O.D.
