some 10' by 14', its longest axis being towards the
entrance which has been from the E. [East]. The wall
has been about 4' in thickness expanding to 8' on either side of the entce [entrance]. Opening off the
interior at the back has been a small circular
recess with a diameter of about 3'. The width
of the entrance is indefinite. Three or four small
cairns lie around the circle

Hut ruins (O.S. [Ordnance Survey] Cairns) (19.a.)
On the N. [North] end of a rocky eminence which lies
in the intervening area between Camrie Fell
and Bught Fell about the 450' elevation are
four cairn-like heaps, two of which about 60 yds. [yards]
apart are most prominent. The most Easterly
of the two measures over all about 17' and
appears to have been a hut. That to the W. [West]
is domical with an elevation of about 2'
and a diameter of 15'. The other two are
very ill-defined.
In a hollow some 200 yds. [yards] to the N. [North] is
a foundation of a turf dwelling of two
compartments each measuring interiorly
12' by 8. They do not seem to have opened
out of each other. Another similar
foundation but undivided is situated on
a heather clad knoll rising above the
flow in an angle formed by two
dykes meeting at right angles some 400 yds [yards] N. [North].
