Full Description
Two shieling huts, an enclosure with two additional cells and at least five structures described as drystone cells, which are situated to the south of a modern track and on the north of the Allt a' Mhuill Bric, were recorded during the course of a pre-afforestation survey by J Wordsworth. Two areas of enriched grassland, both differing markedly to the surrounding vegetation are visible, one of which surrounds the above settlement, the other lies c.500m to the west of the site. <1>
