What is recorded here

In rough, heather-clad pasture, broken by rock outcrops, on a W-facing slope. The remains of a rectangular hut (2m E-W; 1.6m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (T 0.6m; H 0.45m). The W portion of the interior is raised (H 0.3m) and the E portion is cut (D 0.2m) into the upslope to compensate for the hillslope. Loose stones are scattered around the interior.
