Monument record MHG39435 - Field System, Ousdale Burn

Levelled into a S-facing slope are two circular, stone-walled huts.
Hut 'A' measures 8m in diameter between the centres of a wall spread to 2.5m all round. Several inner facing-stones are visible in the N and E arcs and an occasional measurements or wall thickness. The simple entrance is in the SSE.
Hut 'B' measures 7m in diameter between the centres of a peat-covered wall spread to about 3m. The simple entrance is in the S. There are several heavily peat covered stone clearance heaps and traces of probably contemporary walls in the area, but peat growth hides details of cultivation plots.
