What is recorded here

In rough hill pasture, partially obscured by overgrowth and strewn with surface stones, in a NE-sloping hollow. The remains of a circular hut (diam. 2.2m) defined by the lower courses of a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.55m; H 0.7m). A break (Wth 0.5m) at E may indicate an entrance. The S portion of the interior is cut (D 0.2m) into the upslope to create a level interior. Rubble is scattered along the perimeter, both internally and externally. Two other hut sites (KE075-018001-, KE075-018002-) are c. 30m to the E and c. 20m to the NE, respectively.
