Situated amongst rough pasture on a W-facing slope is a large stone-built sheep fank, measuring 24m NE-SW by 12m NW-SE; the pen has an entrance 1m wide in the NE side. The interior has been divided into two equal halves by a wall which runs NW-SE with a central doorway.
Twinning pens lie in the N, W and S corners of the northern half of the fank.
