Full Description

NC75SW 59 7493 5300.

At NC 7493 5300, on a natural shelf on the north east facing slopes above Allt Fada, is a severely depleted hut circle overgrown with heather. It measures about 9m in diameter within a wall 0.1m high and spread to 2.5m; but in the south and south east where presumably the entrance existed, the wall has entirely disappeared. There is no trace of associated cultivation.
Surveyed at 1:10000. Visited by OS (N K B) 31 August 1977.
