Full Description
Remains of a building, probably a shieling hut, situated on a small level platform on the slop above the Burn of Auldgarney. The footings measure circa 4.5m by 2.5m, and there is a possible entrance on the east. The lack of tumble suggests this was a turf walled building. The remains are now largely covered in grass and bracken. Recorded by Birse Community Trust.
