Full Description
A desk-based assessment and walkover survey of Cuil, on the shore of Loch Linnhe, Lochaber, was carried out in 2010 by N Malcolm for RCAHMS' 'Scotland's Rural Past Project'. The march stone dyke, between North Cuil and the Back Settlement, runs up from the sea at the east side of the base of Rudha Mor to the western corner of the bothy (MHG58634) and then continues from the south corner of the bothy into a lochan. A byre dwelling (MHG58635) also lies on the line of this dyke.
