Ancient Village or Settlement in Gwynedd

Coflein says not much really.......
An oval enclosure, c.28m E-W by 24m, defined by stony banks, having a N-facing entrance, within which are remains of three circular structures.
I had no idea it was here even after half a dozen trips up here, map only says homestead, so I ignored it, i'm not ignoring it now.
