Full Description
Two shieling huts and associated structures on the west side of the Allt Carn an t-Sean liathanaich.
The site was recorded during a walkover survey by Highland Archaeology Services in 2007 in advance of a proposed wind farm at Tom nan Clach. About 50m upstream from F6 (see MHG63519) there was another possible shieling. However only one corner was discernable and this could have been a natural feature. <1> <2>
