The site includes a regular aggregate field system with enclosures, a round cairn, and three shielings, representing successive phases of upland occupation and land use. The hut circles date to the prehistoric period, whilst the shielings indicate later pastoral exploitation of the landscape, particularly during the medieval and early modern periods.
