The monument comprises the remains of two circular houses (hut circles) of the Bronze Age set on a natural SW facing terrace. The western house is single walled and measures 15m in diameter. The eastern house is a double walled "Dalrulzian" type with an internal diameter of 9m. The area to be scheduled measures 100m E-W by 35m transversely, as marked in red on the attached map, to include the hut circles and an area around in which traces of activity associated with their use will survive, as marked in red on the attached map.

The monument is of national importance as the well preserved remains of two dissimilar house types which have the potential to increase our knowledge of prehistoric settlement. They are of particular importance because of the proximity of other monuments of similar date; taken together they have the potential to enhance considerably our understanding of the development and organisation of the prehistoric landscape.
