Esgair Naint comprises a large house platform with the foundations of a domestic dwelling upon it, probably the abandoned shepherd's cottage referred to on a 1764 Estate map. Associated with this are two large agricultural enclosures, and at least eight earthwork platforms of varying form, including sub-circular, rectangular and linear. These platforms around the main site could represent earlier settlement of the site.
