Full Description

"Situated on the floor of a disused peat cutting this hut circle measures 5 metres from west to east and 4 metres from north to south. It is visible as a series of stones forming a roughly sub-circular enclosure protruding from the peat cover. There is a possible entrance on the west side, which has views over the south shore of Loch Erisort." (Burgess 2004, 21)
