There is a hut-circle accompanied by a group of small cairns and rig, and a bank on the NW slope of Creag Bhreac about 300m WSW of Torrangarbh.
The hut-circle, which lies at the rear of a terrace within the area of small cairns, measures 10m in diameter within a stony bank 2.3m thick and up to 0.8m high, with occasional facing-stones visible around the perimeter.
The small cairns extend over a distance of about 200m from NW to SE by about 60m transversely, in amongst which there are traces of curving rig, 4m to 6m in width, and there is a bank on the W side which swings around to the S, where a lynchet is visible.
