Two huts and a stretch of grass-grown bank lie at the foot of a slope on the E side of a gully to the NE of Cnoc na Carraigh. The huts are both subrectangular, the easternmost being the best defined and measuring 5.8m from NE to SW by 4.8m transversely within a bank 1.2m in thickness and 0.6m in height. The second, which lies 8m to the W, survives as a low spread mound measuring 5.2m from N to S by 4.2m transversely. The bank lies to the N and extends along the lip of a natural hollow.
(Canna 334-5).
