Located on the crest of the ridge that extends W from Mullaghnarakill mountain. A well-preserved circular drystone hut of corbelled construction that features an external offset of coursed blocks, now largely concealed beneath collapse. Small slabs were used to line the inner wall-face; at SE a modified lintelled entrance, .7m wide, composed of large coursed blocks occurs. A gap, adjacent at E, constitutes the present entrance. D: 3.9m. H: 1.2m. T: 1.8m.
