A square-shaped concentration of stone, measuring 4m (E-W) by 4.5m (N-S), may be the remains of a prehistoric house or cairn. It is situated on rough grassland in a very exposed location, above high cliffs. The concentration is defined by a kerb or wall which comprises large earthfast stones. Two rows of stone, extend outward from the southern side of the structure for 3m; possibly forming a 'porch' or entrance. A marker cairn of recent origin lies nearby.
