Full Description

Possible hut circle, with convincing upper and side walls, but the S side is largely missing. It is just the correct position for a hut circle to be. Its backwall is of heather-capped stone, spread to 2m wide and standing 0.7m high and the remainder of the walls are less prominent. Its internal diameter is 7m and there is a possible 2m wide entrance to 116 degrees.

One of a number recorded across this area. <1>
