NC 3960 6592. A possible hut circle, 28 ft 6 ins in overall diameter but in a very ruinous condition, lies between the 150 ft and 175 ft contours.
R W K Reid 1968; Information from Dr C S Sandeman, Durness, 14 March 1967.
The alleged hut circle was not positively identified. The reference may be to an ill-defined, near-square footing at NC 3967 6578. It is heather-covered and measures about 6.0m internally. It is of an early modern date.
Visited by OS (J B) 17 April 1980.
