Full Description

Subrectangular stone and turf grass covered structure incorparated into a reveted boundary dyke of the same construction; possibly a house or byre. These structures appaer to enclose two headlands; however it seems likely that this impression has been caused by the result of coastal erosion with the extended boundary and land being washed away. The both structures are in stable condition, except for either end which are degrading slowly. The building dimensions are 9m x 6m.
