Full Description
NH63SW 34 6213 3327 to 617 317.
On the moor between Loch Ashie and Midtown, is one very considerable feature, a line of stones, apparently a rude causeway, traceable from Buaile Chomhnard.
(NH63SW 1) to a neighbouring mound, and at the other side of the moor, near the west end of Loch Duntelchaig the same line re-appears.
ISSFC 1885; ISSFC 1898.
The line of stones described above seems to be largely the result of stone clearance rather than a deliberate construction.
Visited by OS (R D) 3 September 1963.
