Visited by OS (A A) 7 December 1971
Set into a W-facing slope is a stone-walled hut visible as a circular platform c.9.0m in diameter bounded by a back scarp and a front build up with traces of walling round the rim. The entrance is not apparent.
On the slopes to the E of the hut are a few stone clearance heaps, probably from contemporary plots.
