Full Description

NH69NE 18 660 957.

Hut circle, 8.6m internally, clearance cairns and lynchets: noted dur ing pre-afforestation survey.
D Ross 1983.

This hut circle lies within a wall up to 2.5m wide at the entrance on the SE. An occasional outer facing stone is visible on S. A gap in the wall on the SW is probably a mutilation; several peat covered clearance cairns lie to the S. Peat obscures positive identification of lynchets or banks.
