Full Description

The foundations of three small buildings to the south of Tom a' Chù-thair, Sguman are visible on vertical aerial photographs. The stone to build them was presymably taken from the hut circle immediately to the north (see MHG3259). Two are immediately adjacent to the hut circle with the third lying c.27m to the east. They are not shown in this location on historic OS mapping. They are presumably the remains of a farmstead and dykes and the remains of rig cultivation lie to the north and northwest (see MHG63270). <1>
