Full Description
NH33SE 23 c.3400 3215
On the SE-facing slopes of Mullach an Tuir, there is an area of small cairns which were recorded during the course of an afforestation survey by J Wordsworth (NMRS MS 961/11 no.2). Collapse in the centre of some of the cairns suggest that they may represent the remains of collapsed rectangular or oval structures.
