Given a lower semicontinuous function $f:\mathbb R^n \rightarrow \mathbb R \cup$ {$+\infty$}, we prove that the set of points of $\mathbb R^n$ where the lower Dini subdifferential has convex dimension $k$ is countably $(n-k)$-rectifiable. In this way, we extend a theorem of Benoist(see [1, Theorem 3.3]), and as a corollary we obtain a classical result concerning the singular set of locally semiconcave functions.
