A circular area (diam. c. 4.2m) defined by the lower courses of a partly collapsed, drystone wall (T c. 0.6m at base, 0.3m at top; H 1m) which narrows as it rises. Boulders are incorporated into the wall at NE, SE, SW and NW. Rubble from the collapsed upper courses is strewn along the perimeter. There is a hut site (KE109-075002-) 25m to the N.
