The monument comprises the remains of a circular or sub-circular dwelling structure typical of Iron Age settlement patterns in the Scottish Highlands and Islands. Such hut circles represent domestic occupation sites dating broadly to the later prehistoric period, though the precise chronology for this particular example requires archaeological investigation to establish with certainty.
