What is recorded here
This is one of a cluster of five hut sites (CH19, -20, -21. -22 & -24) in this particular area. Oval area (dims. 8m N-S; 6m E-W) defined by dry stone wall (H 0.35m) which is covered with a grassy/heather sod in most places. It is cut into the slope NW->NE where a type of retaining wall (int. H 0.4m) has been built to compensate for the incline. Interior heather and grass covered, with a W-facing slope.
