Full Description

NG25NE 12.01 257 575.

Five buildings and an enclosure are clustered on a bulge on a terrace to the NW of Waternish House. They are all aligned from NE to SW and smoothed by cultivation orientated the same way, across the contour.
The banks have some stone in them, but appear to have a high earthen content, the enclosure bank even more so. On the S-facing downslope, compartments of two of the buildings are noticebly sunken, the position of the partition marked by little more than a scarp. They measure up to 16.7m by 4.1m and stand up to 0.5m in height. (WAT90 848-854) Visited by RCAHMS (DCC) 21 November 1990.
