Medium-sized stone hut with truncated cone or false vault roof finished with flat slabs and crown. It is of medium size and has no frontage. From the outside it can be seen that it is an asymmetric hut with contoured lines, especially visible from the back. The door is closed with a lintel, and the entrance corridor with four large consecutive lintels to cover the wide 110 cm wall. Inside it has a running board and two 120 cm deep basins.
Damaged in the winter of 2011, it was restored for the first time in July 2012 by the Association for the Defence and Protection of the Garriga d'Empordà, but a few years later it suffered further damage and was again restored in 2021.
Restoration promoted by Llers Town Council with the support of the Dept. of Culture of the Generalitat of Catalonia in the framework of the "Subsidies for the execution of works of restoration and conservation of buildings of notable cultural value for the three-year period 2020-2022" and carried out by E.I. Foresterra SCCL.
