Full Description
NG51SW 6 537 142.
250m to the S of the Allt na Cille burn and 600m from the E cost of Strathaird lies a possible souterrain. It lies 300m W of the souterrain at Allt na Cille (NG51SW 4) and at a height of c110m OD on ground gently sloping NE. It lies amidst bog and heather vegetation.
A linear depression 8m in length runs along the contour, and contains four flat slabs (?displaced). Not a natural feature and most closely akin to souterrains.
