Full Description

On a slight rise in an area of boggy ground to the NNW of Creag a' Bhocaidh, and about 550m NW of Loch Muidhe, there is an irregularly-shaped enclosure, defined by a stony bank and measuring about 16m NE-SW by 15m transversely. On the E edge of the enclosure there is a roughly oval hut, measuring 2.9m from NNE to SSW by 2.3m transversely within a stony bank spread to 0.7m in thickness; edge-set stones within the wall stand up to 0.5m high. There are traces of peat cutting in the bog to the SE.
