Full Description
NC51SE 52 5574 1284
The severely mutilated remains of a hut-circle lie on SSW side of a forestry plantation; the plantation fence bisects the hut-circle which is scarcely visible in the trees on its NE side. The WNW arc of the hut-circle is further damaged by non-archaeological excavation. It measures 8m in diameter within a bank up to 1.8m in thickness and 0.3m in height.
Visited by RCAHMS (SMF) 14 October 1989.
