This monument includes three stone hut circles situated on a gentle north-east facing slope overlooking the valley of the Colly Brook and is part of a large unenclosed stone hut circle settlement on the north-east slope of Cox Tor. All three stone hut circles include a stone and earth bank defining a circular interior. The internal diameter of the structures varies between 4 metres and 6.5 metres and the banks stand between 0.15 metres and 0.35 metres high. A short length of boundary wall leads eastward from the southernmost hut.
