What is recorded here
In rough pasture, on the S edge of a level break in a S-facing slope. The remains of a rectangular hut (8m N-S; 4m E-W) defined by a partly collapsed, clay-mortared stone wall (T 0.8m; H 1.4m). The wall is built of rough stones and the clay mortar has been washed out of the internal and external wall faces. The interior is heavily overgrown with ferns. There is an entrance (Wth 0.9m) in the centre of the E wall. Another hut site (KE084-059002-) is c. 45m to the E.
