Full Description

"Measuring 3 metres from west to east and 2 metres from north to south, this sheiling is primarily constructed of turf with some stone at its east end. It has been heavily denuded and little remains today that could indicate the location of entrances or internal features. It stands no more than 0.5 metres high and for the most part is less than 0.2 metres high. Located on the upper northern slops of Cleit Ard it has wide views to the north and west." (Burgess 2004, 32)
