This turf and stone dyke is heavily denuded, measuring 0.15 metres - 0.20 metres in width and marks the boundary between crofts 3 and 4. An enclosure of similar construction lies on the west side of the wall, at its north end. Measuring 19.0 metres by 19.0 metres this enclosure is sub-circular and open on its north side.
Within the enclosure are the rectilinear remains of a structure of earlier date. It appears that this structure is cut by the main wall dividing crofts 3 and 4. The remains of this structure measure 4.0 metres by 14.0 metres and consist of low turf walls standing 0.10 metres high and 0.30 metres wide.
