Full Description

Remains of a field system on the south side of the Allt bad A'Choilich. The site is visible in vertical aerial photographs taken in 2009 as a small area of fields and/or paddocks enclosed by narrow dykes. Much of the system may be covered by peat and may be more extensive than that immediately visible. It may be associated with the nearby broch to the northeast (see MHG1125) or the hut circles and 'aisled homestead' to the west (see MHG820 and MHG39439). <1>
