Description
A group of six huts with associated enclosures is located on a sloping shelf on a SE-facing slope on enclosed rough pasture.
Three of the huts are well defined as the foundations of hut circles, a fourth is more doubtful having a later sheep pen built upon it, and the remaining two are sub-rectangular grassy platforms. The enclosures consist of irregular but angular areas defined partly by lines of boulders and partly by the use of natural scarps.
An outlying house platform lies some 150m to the N.
