What is recorded here
On a steep S-facing slope on a slight terrace 2m N of a track. A circular hut site (int. diam. 3.5m x 3.5m; Wth of surviving walls 0.8-1m) defined by a low stone wall overgrown with furze on the N side. The inner face of the wall is well preserved at W with a continuous 2m stretch of upright flags rising 0.2-0.4m above ground level. The wall is mostly missing at S but one slightly larger internal facing stone (H 0.5m) may mark the W jamb of the doorway. Another hut site (WI027-083----) lies c. 23m to the NE.
