There are three huts set in a line from NNE to SSW at the base of the steep SE slopes of Sron na Creige, and about 450m WNW of the sheepfold at Dail na Seilg. The first hut (KING95 26), at the SW end of the line, measures 5.1m from NNE to SSW by 2.5m transversely within a turf and stone wall 0.7m in thickness and 0.2m in height. The second hut (which may only be a pen) is built against the NW side of a large boulder about 20m to the NNE, and measures 2.4m by 2m within a rubble wall up to 0.5m in height (KING95 27). The third hut (KING95 28), situated about 10m NNE of the second, measures 7.6m by 2.5m within faced rubble walls 0.7m in thickness. This hut, which is the largest, is more regularly built than the others, with squared corners inside and out.
