What is recorded here
In rough fern-covered hill pasture, on an E-facing slope in an E-W hollow to the NE of the summit of Mount Corin. The jumbled remains of a D-shaped hut site (2.2m N-S) defined by a collapsed, curving, drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.1-0.4m) with straight S side (L 2.6m). Rubble is scattered around the hut site externally and in the level interior, which is largely obscured by ferns. Two other hut sites (CO130-056001-, CO130-056002-) are c. 20m to the E.
