Hut site in Rossmackowen Commons

In rough hill pasture, in an area of cutaway bog, on an E-facing slope and within a network of relict field boundaries (CO115-106004-). The remains of a circular hut site (diam. 3m) defined by a jumbled stone wall (T 0.5m; H 0.3m), which has collapsed inwards. The level interior, which is partially covered with rubble, is raised (H 0.4m) at the E and cut (D 0.3m) into the upslope at the W to compensate for the hillslope.
