"The low footings of a Shieling Hut measuring approximately 6m by 3m externally. The remains of a smaller building stand about 30m to the east. It measures 3m by 2m externally. The walls consist of a single course of large stones. The interior is very small. This might have been a dairy or store associated with the Shieling Hut." <1>
