Full Description
A partially collapsed stone dyke abutting a large boulder on the east side of the burn. It survives to a maximum height of 0.55m and is 0.55m wide and is c4m long running approximately N/S. There are stones under the vegetation at right angles to this but they sre not very convincing as a wall. There are insufficient stones to suggest this was once roofed. It is situated to the east of the Allt Coire na h-Eiridh and was recorded during a survey of the West Affric estate by J Wordsworth for the National Trust for Scotland. <1>
