Centred at NC 678 437, in undulating ground, are two turf and heather covered hut circles ('A' and 'B') and associated field clearance heaps. Hut 'A' appears as a poorly defined platform, measuring about 7m E-W by 6m within an extremely vague wall, 0.1m high and spread to 2m at the entrance in the east.
'B' also survives as a platform measuring 12m E-W by 9.5m within a slight wall best preserved on S side of the entrance in the east arc, where it is pread to 2.3m wide and 0.3m high.
The field clearance is scattered over a small area around the huts. Surveyed at 1:10,000. Visited by OS (J B) 8 August 1978.
