ND34NW 67 ND 32119 45051 & ND 32132 45044
What appear to be the remains of two subrectangular huts are situated on the top of a glacial knoll some 300m ENE of Raggra farmsteading (ND34SW 291). The NW hut (YARROWS04 527), which seems to be open at its SW end, measures about 3.8m from NE to SW by 3.1m transversely within a wall that have been reduced to a grass-grown bank up to 1.5m in thickness and 0.3m in height. The SE hut (YARROWS04 528), measures 4.6m from NW to SE by 3m transversely within a wall that has been reduced to a grass-grown bank up to 1.5m in thickness and 0.2m in height. A small square pen, also reduced to a grass-grown bank, is attached to the NE side of the hut.
