Hut site

What is recorded here

In rough heather-clad hill pasture, on the lower N-facing slopes of The Paps of Dana. The remains of an oval hut (2.5m E-W; 1.8m N-S) defined by a drystone wall (T 0.55m; H 1.4m) which is highest along the W arc. Two low curvilinear stone walls which abut the wall externally at NNW may be the remains of an annexe. Short low walls also abut the hut externally at SE and E.
