Full Description

NG25NE 23 252 578.

At least three hut-circles are situated just above the shore of Loch Bay about 1km NW of Waternish House. They have been overlain by cultivation ridges and that to the E appears to have been supplemented by field clearance. There is a small inlet to the S and a fragment of what may be a pre-lazy-bed orthostatic bank running across the contour.
