Full Description

Standing structure, in rough pasture at confluence of burn, with NW aspect at an altitude of 150-180m OD.
SMR card.

NM39NW 10 303 992.

A group of at least eleven huts is situated at the junction of the Allt Airigh na Maith-innse and the Allt Camas na h'Atha. The huts vary in shape from subrectangular to oval, and there are three two-compartment huts, the smaller compartment opening off the larger. The subrectangular huts are the best-preserved structures on the site and one probably overlies a two compartment hut.
