An unusually small hut-circle (ROG95 313) is levelled into a gentle grass- and heather-covered slope on the NE flank of Cnoc na Fardaich. It measures 4.4m in diameter within a boulder-faced bank 1.3m in thickness and 0.4m in height. There is a large boulder on the E side of the entrance, which is on the S.
About twelve small cairns (ROG95 982), measuring up to 4m in diameter and 0.3m in height, are situated on the ridge to the N of the hut-circle. Some 100 to the NW (NC 7082 0952) there is a single small cairn.
