What is recorded here
In rough, heather-clad hill pasture, on a SE-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Clydagh River. A roughly oval area (7m E-W; 3.6m N-S) defined by a collapsed, roughly constructed drystone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.8m). The NW portion of the interior is cut slightly into the upslope, however, it still retains a slope down to the SE. There is an entrance break at SW from where a collapsed wall extends (L c. 2m) to the W. There is a hut site (KE076-039001-) c. 45m to the WNW and an enclosure (KE076-039003-) c. 50m to the N.
