Description
The rather scattered remains of what has been described as a hut circle. The site consists of a roughly circular and roughly level area which is marked at it N and S sides by a line of curving somewhat scattered and well embedded stones. Few if any stones survive at the uphill, W side and the downhill E side has an area of displaced stone beyond the presumed limits of the circle. No other details of the 'hut' survive. Diameter found to be about 8m which is on the large size for a hut in this area, but the OS investigator suggests a diameter of 19 feet. The surviving walls presumed to be more or less in situ are 1.25m wide at the S which is the best preserved portion. 355m above O.D.
