Full Description
NH69NE 23 663 956.
Hut circles, 13.5m by 11.5m: noted during pre-afforestation survey.
D Ross 1983.
Hut A at NH 6663 9563, lies on a dry shelf and measures overall 12.5m by 11.5m. Close to the entrance on the SE, the walling is 2.0m wide and 0.9m high. The interior and E segment of the wall have been mutilated and robbed.
Hut B at NH 6661 9561 is represented by two short lengths of curvilinear wall flanking a depression representing the entrance. Some outer facing stones and wall core give a width of 2.1m and 0.3m high. Peat coveres the remainder of the area but the hut circle probably had a diameter of about 11.0m.
Information from D W Ross, S E Finlay and P Ashmore 1983, 6 (see archive, MS/578/1)
