Full Description
NC75NW 71 718 566.
Centred at NC 718 566, within an area of run-rig cultivation, are two turf covered hut circles ('A' and 'B') discovered by Rudie (Elliot Rudie, 7 Mackenzie Cres., Bettyhill).
'A' is about 4.5m in diameter within a wall 0.3m high and spread to 2.0m. The south arc has been destroyed.
'B' is 7.5m in diameter within a low wall spread to 1.5m; later clearance has been dumped on the east arc. The entrance is in the south. Any remains of contemporary cultivation has probably been destroyed run rig, but a field system (NC75NW 23) 200.0m to the north east may be associated.
