What is recorded here
In rough, heather-clad hill pasture, on a SE-facing slope, overlooking the valley of the Clydagh River. The remains of an oval hut (5m NE-SW; 2.4m NW-SE) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.6m). The S portion of the interior is raised and the N portion is cut into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope. The interior is level. There is another hut site (KE076-040005-) c. 10m to the N and three other huts (KE076-040002-, KE076-040007-, KE076-040008-) are c. 35m to the SW.
