Hut circle within a hut circle settlement. Building is terraced into the hillslope and of the simple plan and single orthostat walling type.
Interior measures 4.5 metres in diameter and is defined by a 1.0 metre wide wall standing up to 0.6 metres high. A curved length of wall within the hut may represent a partition or later re-use of the structure. This hut circle is linked to a length of curved boundary wall which denotes the northern edge of the settlement. The boundary wall appears to abut the hut, strongly suggesting that the hut is earlier than the wall.
