On a broad terrace between the cliffs and the shore at Talm, on the N coast of Eigg, there are two shieling-huts and an enclosure. The larger hut is roughly rectangular and measures 2.8m in length by 1.4m in breadth within stone-faced banks up to 0.5m in height. An enclosure extends 4m to the ESE with a possible entrance in the NE. The smaller hut, approximately 60m to the E, is roughly circular in plan and measures 1m in diameter within a wall 0.2m high.
