On gently sloping ground to the W of a small burn, at 55m OD, is a ruinous longhouse with rounded ends. Aligned N-S the structure measures 11m N-S by 5m E-W over walls 1m wide. A door opening 30cm wide lies in the centre of the east wall facing the burn.
Attached to the south end of the longhouse are two small stone dyked enclosures, both of which use rock outcrops for one side.
To the SW is a small area of cleared and improved ground.
