Depopulated settlement. The remains of a bow-ended longhouse are set within stony ground with a set of linear clearance banks. Cut into a bluff is a corn kiln, five courses high. Set behind it is an impressive stone clearance bank above the bluff, beyond the line of the head dyke. There are two longhouses, 14m by 5m and 14m by 6m, both square-ended, plus a small enclosure with a 10m by 4m building attached. Below the bluff, there is a superb corn kiln with 3-stepped entrance and store adjoining ( survives to 12 courses), and another nearby set into, or covered by, stone clearance material. An 18m by 5m longhouse is compartmented and another, bow-ended, has an enclosure plot tacked onto the end, both apparently sitting on older foundations.
