Several structures at southeastern end of this settlement were repurposed as seasonal accomadation for summer visits (circa 1970's). However much of this settlement remains as it was following its abandonment. The northern most cluster of buildings are in a good state of preservation and comprise of an elongated 'D' shaped outer structural wall containing five compartments representing possibly two houses. The interconnecting passageways in this structure piont to a Medieval date for this structure. The other structures to the south maybe contempary with this , however it is not so obvious given the adjacent, more modern activity.
