Full Description
A rapid coastal zone assessment survey was conducted by GUARD in the Autumn of 1997 commissioned by Historic Scotland from the Viking and Early Settlement Archaeological Research Project based at the University of Glasgow.
Running between the bedrock outcrops on a steep slope is a small stretch of coastal path which is evident c 25 m east of the coast-edge and which runs parallel to the Loch going up the slope. This path is between I m and 2.5 m wide and follows the contour of the slope. Sheep-tracks have cut this path and turf-growth and rock-tumble have also obscured stretches of it. <1>
