Full Description
At ND 0266 6111 there is a largely turf-covered hut circle set into a gentle SE-facing slope. It measures about 8m in diameter within a wall spread 1.5 -2m and 0.5m high The entrance is in the ESE; a band of stone extends outwards from N side of entrance passage for 2m. A stony scarp in the interior suggests a sub- division. A small number of clearance heaps, short stretches of wasted walling and linear clearance are evidence of contemporary cultivation around the hut.
Surveyed at 1:10,000. Visited by OS (J B) 21 September 1981.
