The hut is circular in plan and the walls survive to a maximum of 4 courses in height (0.8m). A possible entrance is located to the NW and SE. Internal Dimensions: 4.1m E/W x 4m N/S. A wall abuts the hut to the N and consists of an uncoursed random rubble wall. The wall is overgrown with grass and moss and survives to a maximum height of 0.35m. Wall to the north of the hut measures 28m in length and 0.9m in width. Wall to the south of the hut measures 46m and curves from N to SE to S to W. The annex abuts the hut to the east. It is constructed of random rubble and is largely collapsed. It consists of 2 courses in width (0.65m) and survives to a maximum of 2 courses in height.'
