The remains of a small stone building possibly a small house or agricultural building. Mature sycamore trees that may have been planted to provide shelter for the building currently dominant the site. A stream flows past the site to the south-east. The building is raised above the stream by a dry stone retaining wall with evidence of stone steps leading to the stream to the south-west. Part of the wall has collapsed to the north-east. The walls of the building survive to no more than two courses of rubble stone and are some 8m by 3.5m with one obvious internal division. A slight bank can be seen to the south-west.
