Three subrectangular buildings are strung out along the rear of a terrace that looks NE across to Druim Mor. The northern two lie below a crag within an old plantation. The northernmost is the largest and measures 8.2m from NW to SE by 4m transversely within faced rubble walls 0.8m in thickness and 0.6m in height. Its interior is dug into the slope on the SW side and the entrance opens onto the terrace on the NE. The second building lies some 60m to the SSE and measures 5.7m by 3.5m within a wall now reduced to a low stony bank 1.8m in thickness. It too has an entrance opening onto the terrace, and there are also traces of enclosure walls extending from its ENE side to the leading edge of the terrace. The third building, which lies a further 55m to the SSE, is the smallest and is also in the poorest state of preservation. It measures 5m by 2.7m internally and has an entrance towards the N end of the E side.
