Full Description
What may be a hut-circle is bisected by a bank aligned from N to S and apparently running into Knockbreck to the SE; it measures 8m in diameter within a stony bank 1m thick and 0.2m in height. The hut-circle bank could not be traced on the E side of the field-bank, although there are several earthfast boulders which could mark its line. The overlying bank appears to be partially encroached upon by peat cuttings, but its relationship to the peat cover is unclear.
